Greater Council Bluffs Regional Economic Development Partnership

Served by two interstates, a major airport and a skilled workforce, The Greater Council Bluffs Region has strengthened its financial, medical, retail, trade and transportation centers through a regional commitment to business growth.

Our public and private community leaders have invested more than $600 million over the last decade to create a wide mix of industries and build a highly diversified job base that's resistant to cyclical economic changes. With the proximity of a workforce of more than 400,000 and an overnight market of more than 45 million people, The Greater Council Bluffs Region has positioned itself for economic leadership.

The Greater Council Bluffs Regional Economic Development Partnership, a partnership of local governing agencies, business, education and economic development groups, works proactively to keep The Greater Council Bluffs Region on the leading edge of business opportunity.
