The Economic Development team works closely with stakeholders and partners to support key initiatives within the community. We are focused on building relationships with investors and builders, fostering job creation, supporting business endeavours, and welcoming new residents.
Our population and geographic size are quite unique. We’re bigger than a small town but smaller than nearby cities – the happy medium! Our proximity to larger centres and major infrastructure combined with ample breathing room and lush greenery make West Nipissing an ideal place.
