Incentives for Qualifying Businesses:
With a reputation as a pro-business state, North Carolina is a strong competitor for manufacturing and corporate facilities. In recent years, state and local government officials have sought to maintain that competitive position by offering aggressive incentive programs designed to reduce start-up costs and minimize long-term costs. A combination of tax credit and cash grant programs are available at the state and local levels that meet the needs of most companies. For information on state and regional incentives available to qualifying businesses, contact the North Carolina Department of Commerce at (919) 733-5297 or
