Business Retention & Expansion Program
Maricopa's Business Retention and Expansion (BRE) program, established in October 2006, is aimed at keeping existing businesses in the area and assisting in their growth. The program consists of conducting one-on-one interviews with business owners and then following up with any information or special assistance needed. Assistance can range from providing additional information about networking opportunities in the community to working to recruit requested ancillary business services to the area. Maricopa is a member of the statewide "Building Bridges to Businesses" program sponsored by Arizona Public Service. Membership in this program has established an ongoing business retention and expansion strategy aimed at helping to develop and grow local business in the Maricopa community. In continued partnership with the Maricopa Chamber of Commerce, the City is dedicated to ongoing communication efforts with all members of the local business community, the foundation of Maricopa's economy.
