What We Can Do To Help You
Investment, Site Location, Business Re-location
Relocate a business to Georgia where 32 Fortune 1000 companies are headquartered, workforce training is fast and free, and businesses have direct, easy access to global markets. A booming, well-educated workforce, reasonably priced land, favorable taxes, and an advanced logistics and transportation infrastructure have convinced companies like Porsche, UPS, ZF Friedrichshafen, Boeing, Caterpillar, Baxter and Home Depot as well as thousands of international businesses to relocate or establish operations in Georgia.
