nsion,
Winston-Salem’s effort to attract new employers has paid off wi^l'-a lis
among “America’s 50 Hottest Cities’’ for business relocation or ^ans
according to Expansion Management magazine.
The magazine’s January-February issue ranked Winston-Salem 34th on its list
of cities that site location consultants consider the best locations for future facility
expansion.
The magazine asked more than 80 of the industry’s most prominent site looation
consultants to list their top city choices for relocating and expanding manufactur
ing companies, taking into consideration such factors as the business climate,
work force quality, operating costs, incentive programs, and the ease of working
with local political and economic development officials.
Mayor Allen Joines said that the listing validates the broad community effort to
rebuild Winston-Salem’s local economy. “I think that Winston-Salem opened a lot
of eyes when we were successful in securing the location of the new Dell
computer facility,” Joines said.
“That effort required unprecedented cooperation by the public and private
sectors of our community, and that’s what this poll measured - the ease of
working with local government and local economic development organizations,”
Joines said. Successful efforts to retain the US Airways reservations center and
recruit Tengion Inc. and the Lowe’s data center reinforced the perception that
Winston-Salem is serious about fostering economic development, he said. “As we
look to the future and the opening of the Fed Ex hub, rankings such as this can only
bolster our efforts to attract new jobs.
Three other North Carolina metropolitan areas were also listed: Charlotte at No. 6,
Raleigh-Cary at No. 16, and Greensboro-High Point at No. 47. More information
