Investors
Economic development in Asheville and Buncombe County is a team effort. Our community relies on the leadership and investment of more than 80 private Asheville businesses, organizations and local governments. These investors help the EDC strategically expand high-growth industries and attract higher wage jobs to the Asheville area, creating better opportunities for our residents while increasing county and city investments in our economy.
Investors make a five-year financial commitment that offer the business and community many benefits. New labor income and industry growth create a ripple effect in the metro Asheville economy, increasing demand for industries like professional business services, banking, real estate, health care, supply chain products and more.
Thanks to the many Asheville area businesses investing in job growth through AVL 5X5 Vision 2020!
