In Tennessee, we are committed to maintaining and improving our reputation as a world-class business location. Governor Bill Haslam and Commissioner Bill Hagerty are advocates of strong economic development and work hard to foster a pro-business climate that enhances Tennessee’s attractiveness as a place to call home.

Tennessee is an ideal place to drive business success because we offer more than great transportation infrastructure and a central location.
In our state, progressive businesses will find access to vital economic components such as a right-to-work environment, a dependable and educated workforce, a wonderful quality of life and a wealth of technology resources that give businesses a winning edge in their growth and profitability
In Tennessee, we realize that supporting our existing industries is just as crucial to our success as recruiting new business. Existing companies are the source of nearly 80 percent of new jobs and capital investment in our state, and a substantial portion of ECD’s charge is to nurture the growth and development of those companies
Tennessee’s competitive incentive packages for both new and existing industries, along with practical grant and loan programs, make doing business in Tennessee a smart decision whether your grandfather started your family business here 60 years ago or you’re brand new to the state.
