Florida is consistently ranked as one of the best states for business because we provide an efficient, affordable, and competitive operating environment with the resources needed to expand and thrive in a global economy. As the commercial and industrial heart of the state, Hillsborough County is a leading location for corporate site selection in North America.

Companies operating here enjoy:

  • Favorable corporate tax policies
  • No personal income tax
  • Young, talented and educated labor force
  • Stable, pro-business elected leadership
  • Cost of Living that is consistently lower than the national average
  • Unbeatable quality of life
  • A diverse population that is expected to grow more than double the national average over the next 5 years

Additionally, the Tampa Bay EDC enjoys a collaborative relationship with the City of Tampa and Hillsborough County, which cuts down on the barriers to market entry and mitigates the cost of relocation. Our business recruitment team connects businesses interested in relocating to the area with resources such as real estate availability, custom research and market intelligence, workforce training, expedited permitting assistance, and many other useful resources.
