Here in Weld County we are pro-growth, prepared to handle company needs and will do what we reasonably can to reduce development/start-up costs.

Upstate Colorado Economic Development can serve as a single, confidential source of information about Weld County.  We maintain information concerning communities, available buildings and land, labor force information/resources, local/regional demographics, financial resources, etc. We can facilitate meetings with community leadership and quantify potential local, county and state government incentive packages for qualified primary sector employers locating or expanding to Weld County. The Upstate Colorado Incentive Summary – Location Advantages summarizes potential assistance available to primary sector employers.  Additional detailed service and incentive program information can be found in the Download Center to the right, or by contacting the Upstate office.
