New Bedford is the next growth area in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Leaders in government and business, like our Business Resource Team, work in collaboration to bring new business to New Bedford and give support to those already here. These individuals, each with a different perspective, have a common goal—to give the very best service possible.
“We want you to get what you need —a loan, a tour of available commercial properties, a meeting at city hall—whatever it takes for your business to succeed. At the NBEDC, we help business people connect with the right people through our many partnerships. Call me. Together we can develop a plan to get what you need.”
