Cut to the Chase

While we appreciate your visit, we know that you’re a busy person and have probably visited a number of sites in your search for the perfect location to locate or expand your operations. For that reason, I’d like to give you an overview of what you’ll find on the following pages, but in short form…in other words, we’ll cut to the chase!

Spalding County and its county seat, Griffin, are just south of Hartsfield Jackson Atlanta International Airport on Georgia Highway 16, which bisects Interstate 75. A few of our assets include:

Reasonable industrial land just off the Interstate, with low taxes
One-stop permitting, with a business-friendly government
Electric power costs among the lowest in the Southeast
Close proximity to Atlanta and the busiest international airport in the world
Fiber optic cable throughout our industrial parks
Industrial and office buildings available now
Abundant surface water sources for countywide system of water mains
Expanded wastewater treatment facilities and new sewer mains
Excellent public schools and Technical College in county
Strong non-union manufacturing labor base
High quality of life community

Beyond the local benefits, Georgia offers a number of programs that assist with start-up costs, and then helps with training employees as you go along. As your firm expands, tax credits are available for qualifying industries.

Of course, the usual amenities like public and private golf courses, cultural activities, sports facilities, equestrian events and a world of recreational opportunities await you just a short drive from the office or home! Experience the best of all worlds just far enough away to be charming, and just close enough to do business on a global scale.

If you’re interested in the details, delve a little deeper into our Web Site. We appreciate the visit and look forward to answering any questions or sending further information to you. We know you’ll appreciate all of the unique aspects of Griffin and Spalding County!
