Innovation Builds Here!
Innovation Builds Here is the title of the new industrial marketing brochure recently unveiled in a partnership between the City of Rochelle and GREDCO.
“From an economic development perspective, the City of Rochelle has so many great things going for it. We needed to find another medium in which to tell our story – to get the word out,” stated Jason Anderson, Economic Development Director for the City.
The new brochure highlights all the area assets – people, infrastructure, transportation systems, and city services – which have made Rochelle such an attractive location for industries to build and expand. The City’s Economic Development department has begun to not only get this new brochure into the hands of industrial real estate brokers, developers, and site selectors, but also into the hands of businesses and residents of the community. Jason Anderson added, “We also want our own community to know what is going on in their back yards and how they’ve benefited from the industrial growth.”
Over the past two decades, the City of Rochelle has effectively diversified its industry base – logistics, manufacturing, and technology are all well-represented. This diversity minimizes the ups and downs associated with economic swings, and also means that Rochelle offers a significant variety of job opportunities and careers.
