What Industry Leaders Are Saying

Jon Jessen

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Yuma has been a good place to live and a good place to work for about 45 years now. We found it to be a pretty fertile soil for business to grow in. The business has grown and my family has grown and it has been a good launching pad for both.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Associated Materials Innovations has been in Yuma for 20 years now. One of the reasons that makes Yuma a great location to do business is the workforce pool. People are willing to work and eager to help achieve the businesses goals. Labor is readily available and we have experienced no labor shortages in our 20 years here. Doing business in Yuma is very efficient, resources are available as soon as they are needed and GYEDC has helped us to not leave any rock unturned on tax incentives or other available financial stimulus for capital investment. This is a very close-knit community and GYEDC has been a great resource to get us connected and involved in it.
