A message from the director
"To me, economic development is a 24-hour-a-day job, working on business development projects, and assisting businesses to grow and expand. I live, work and also play here, so I'm in 100% to make Macomb County the most desirable place to be."
-- Jack Johns, program director
Macomb County Planning and Economic Development
What businesses are saying
“The county really took the bull by the horns, set up meetings and conferences that were informative and hands-on. They had the experts there to introduce us to these new technologies. And it lowered the fear barrier to get into it. Most of the manufacturing guys are ‘show me guys.’ They want to see it, they want to touch it, they want to hold it, understand it better. We are engineers in our mindset. So when the county introduced the Industry 4.0 program and the other components that are piggybacking off of that, it was a great opportunity for the manufacturing community to get involved and help their business grow into the future.”
-- Paul Patrash, CEO, Elite Mold and Engineering
