A Boatload of Incentives
Businesses looking to expand or relocate, new company start-ups or any other business endeavors will find significant assistance designed to support growth and success.

Enterprise Zones, Tax Increment Finance Districts (TIF) and the Illinois Edge program, among others, offer a variety of state and local credits, exemptions and deductions to help reduce construction and business operating costs. The region also includes a Foreign Trade Zone with sub-zone opportunities throughout the region where foreign and domestic goods may be admitted without a formal Customs entry or the payment of Customs duties or government excise taxes.

Several sources of financing are availble at the local level. These can be tailored to your specific needs.
