Business Retention

At the City of Tallmadge, we recognize that all businesses play a vital role in our community’s economic well-being. While attracting new businesses remains an important goal, our highest priority lies in nurturing the success of the businesses already rooted here. These local businesses—who have invested in our community and providing quality jobs—are our cornerstone.

Did you know that up to 80% of job growth in Tallmadge stems from existing businesses? With this knowledge, we take a proactive approach: identifying opportunities for business expansion and helping to facilitate those plans. Our focus centers on sustaining and enhancing both the local economy and the quality of life for Tallmadge residents.

We consider existing businesses to be our valued customers. Our dedicated economic development efforts revolve around retaining and expanding these enterprises. Through an active and coordinated BRE program, we achieve the following:

1. Building Strong Relationships: We forge meaningful connections with company stakeholders, fostering trust and collaboration.
2. Understanding Business Needs: By actively listening, we gain insights into the unique challenges and aspirations of our local businesses.
3. Effective Communication: We maintain open lines of dialogue, sharing vital information and resources.
