A Message from Pennsylvania Governor Ed Rendell
Welcome to Chester County, located in the great Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Whether you are relocating your company, expanding
and growing your existing business or have a dream of starting up a
new one, Chester County is the place for you.

The Chester County Economic Development Council can help you.
The CCEDC has partnered with the Commonwealth for over forty-two years, assisting companies to find suitable sites and acquire construction financing. Today, the Council also offers an extensive range of economic development resources, including manufacturing consultation, technology assistance, international trade promotion and workforce development. The results have been impressive. Since 1960, CCEDC activities have resulted directly in the creation of nearly 85,000 new jobs, the retention of over 110,000 existing jobs, the acquisition of approximately $3.5 billion in financing loans and the establishment of over 3,750 new companies in Chester County alone.

Given the challenging economic situation facing the Commonwealth today, Chester County must continue to focus on investing in their economy, achieving real results for their community.

Contact the Chester County Economic Development Council to find out more about the services available to your company and the quality of life your family and employees can enjoy in Chester County. I wholeheartedly encourage companies to put down roots, and invest in Pennsylvania!

Best Wishes,

Governor Ed Rendell
