The West Ohio Development Council, established in July of 1983, is a not-for-profit organization composed of business and community leaders dedicated to maintain the economic growth and stability of West Central Ohio.

We believe that we are in the people business. Our mission is to do "whatever it takes" to help new businesses in our area. At the same time, the council remains dedicated to retaining industry, service, retail and health care businesses already established in this region of Ohio.

The West Ohio Development Council works closely with local government officials to make known financial and employment incentives available under Ohio law. We are here to help you build a successful business.

If you are considering a new location for your company, we believe that you have come to one of the best possible locations in the Midwest. West Central Ohio businesses benefit from our industrial amenities, diverse economy and vibrant communities.
