Incentives To Grow By

Often, growth and change are the two greatest challenges to maintaining a competitive edge in today's marketplace. Meeting these challenges takes resources, and the Ulster County Development Corporation, along with dedicated public partners and proactive private banking institutions, stand ready to develop a custom incentive package so your business can meet its particular challenges head on.

To aid businesses large and small we offer access to programs such as the Ulster County Industrial Development Agency, the Kingston-Ulster Empire Zone, the Shovel Ready and Telecommunications Funds, and the countywide Revolving Loan Funds. Together with assistance available through the Ulster County Office of Employment and Training, and the Empire State Development Corporation, your business can receive financial and technical assistance to address your land and equipment acquisition, workforce training, infrastructure, and relocation needs.

With the assistance of these programs, Ulster County has seen over $167 million in new capital investments since 2000.
