We know there’s a whole batch of would-be entrepreneurs and business leaders who are looking for a place where they can succeed, Quincy is the place for you. Here how Quincy is the place to do business from our partners at Area Distributors.

We understand that there is a mired of incentives that are offered to your business by government at every level. It can be confusing, and we know, with your busy schedule you may not have the time to even begin to tap into the resources available to you. We can help you navigate that process, so money is not left on the table and so your project becomes a reality with a little less on your place.

One example of this was our partnership with Jerry Neal and the team at Sunset Home.

If you have an idea, an opportunity, or a project that might benefit your company or our community, we hope that you will think of the Great River Economic Development Foundation. Check out how two individuals, who picked up the phone to GREDF, and formed a partnership that benefited each other, and will be a part of our business community for decades to come.

GREDF is here to work on strengthening our Talent Pipeline. We connect students, the unemployed, the underemployed, and those job seekers with the many opportunities that are available to them right in their backyard.

One way we do this is through the Tri-State MakerFest which brings over 200 high school students from the Tri-State area to get one-on-one experience on career opportunities wiith local companies.
