Incentives
The City of Greensboro, Guilford County, and North Carolina offer a variety of incentives to businesses that relocate to our community. More and more companies are deciding to take advantage of the "pro-business" attitude that exists here. The Greensboro Economic Development Alliance is eager to assist qualified companies that are in the position to positively impact the area's economy.
Local Incentives:
The City of Greensboro and Guilford County have formal policies
for assistance to new and expanding companies based upon job creation,
capital investment and employee wages.
State of North Carolina Incentives: North Carolina incentives include the Job Development Investment (JDIG), the One North Carolina Fund, and Article 3J Tax Credits. Industrial revenue bonds can also be issued by Guilford County for the financing of manufacturing projects on low interest rates.
Workforce Training Assistance: New and Expanding Industry Training (NEIT) grants provide state-funded training, customized for the company, delivered on-site or at a Guilford Technical Community College (GTCC) campus. The Greensboro-High Point-Guilford County Workforce Development Board helps businesses locate, screen, select or train workers.
Utility Assistance: Duke Energy provides for an Economic Development Rider for qualifying companies contributing to the economy of the Duke Energy service area. With the rider, companies can receive a 20% reduction equal to the best available rate, with a cumulative reduction of 50% over four years.
Property Selection Assistance: The Greensboro Economic Development Alliance staff will assist clients with the identification of suitable properties. Site tours can be arranged with or without the participation of the real estate broker. Complete confidentiality is assured. The easily searchable, online tool, Property Locator
