The local business community plays a key
role in the life of Forest Grove.
The local
Chamber of Commerce, working closely with Pacific
University, the City of Forest Grove and civic
groups, supports many of the events and initiatives
around town.
The city’s amenities have made it a prime
area for business relocation.
Adjacent
to Beaverton and Hillsboro, home to Oregon’s
Silicon Valley, and only 37 miles from Portland
International Airport and just 8 miles from Hillsboro
Airport, the city offers convenient urban access with
significantly lower costs.
Affordable industrial and commercial
land,
paired with low power costs and a pristine
municipal water supply and complemented by
cutting edge technology services and infrastructure,
make Forest Grove an asset for your business’
bottom line.
An experienced and entrepreneurial city
staff
is ready to advocate for businesses to make
the site selection and permitting processes a piece
of cake. If you’re still not convinced, keep in mind
the low state and local taxes, plus Enterprise Zone
tax incentives for qualifying
businesses.
Add to that unprecedented
access to a highly skilled
regional workforce
and Forest
Grove becomes as close to a sure
thing as you’ll find anywhere in the
country.
