Georgia #1 State for Doing Business
Georgia was designated the "top state for doing business" for the eighth year in
a row by Area Development, the nation's leading corporate site selection magazine.
Magazine.* The annual poll of site consulting firms considers various factors such as
overall cost of doing business, cooperative and responsive state government,
competitive labor environment, workforce development programs, and available real
estate.
"Georgia set new economic development records during the last fiscal year in
spite of the pandemic. Nearly $11 billion in new investments during fiscal 2021, which
ended June 30, represented a 46% increase over fiscal 2020, while 33,439 jobs created
across the state beat the previous record by 5%."*

The Georgia Economic Development Guide is available digitally and includes economic reports as well as information on new business in or coming to Georgia. Consider the following facts quoted from the guide. "74% of the projects [FY 2021] were outside the metro Atlanta area, so we're seeing
projects go literally all over the state, including places where we haven't seen projects announced in a long time." (p. 14) "Georgia's labor force of 5.3 M is the second largest in the Southeast".(p. 41) "440 of the Fortune 500 companies call Georgia home.18 have headquarters in the state."(page 77) "70% of all financial payments in the U.S. pass through Georgia". (p. 87) 2021 was a record year for film and TV production in Georgia. (p.70) In addition to existing E-Mobility programs, EV charging infrastructure plans, plans for truck-only Interstate lanes, investment plans for inland ports, and broadband initiatives for rural areas of Georgia, Georgia has the number one workforce development program in the country. For licensees working with industrial or commercial users, or those companies that require housing for a large work force, there is a wealth of information easily accessible from Georgia.org and https://site selection.com/cc/georgia/ as well as the Georgia Economic Development Guide.
