A pro-business mindset, unique retailers, and the personal touch...

Living and working in Arkansas is a natural advantage in itself. “The Natural State” has one of the lowest overall per capita tax burdens in the entire country.  But the Greater Blytheville Area offers even more. Lower-cost living, pro-business leadership and plenty of space opens the doors for a variety of professional services and retail businesses alike, and wherever you go, you will find people who are warm and friendly as they make doing business as congenial as possible.

The area’s pro-business attitude starts with government, and is further supported by a multitude of organizations that work together to aggressively pursue growth and progress.  Two city governments, a county economic development team, and the Chamber of Commerce work to make it easy for business to locate in the Greater Blytheville Area and take advantage of the incentives that will lead to greater prosperity.  As that commerce continues to develop, both businesses and residents are served by a comprehensive list of professionals. To assist in filling workforce needs, for instance, the community features three leading employment services, each staffed by specialists in industrial and professional placement.  Major banks, including long-established Farmers Bank & Trust and First National Bank, along with South Bank and the Northeast Arkansas Federal Credit Union, offer up-to-date financial services and lending capabilities, and both cities are served by a comprehensive list of attorneys, accountants and professional consultants.

In short, the future is filled with promise for small businesses and larger corporations alike in Blytheville and Gosnell, where citizens know the meaning of success, and where success is always accompanied by a warm smile.
