Business Resources

Business Retention & Expansion (BR&E) is an economic development strategy of proactively connecting with existing businesses to understand and respond to local business needs.

The purpose of the Business Retention & Expansion Program is to encourage existing businesses to remain and expand in Anna, thereby creating new jobs and new taxable revenue for the city. The BR&E program is an ongoing and critical process as it allows the city to develop strong relationships with the business community and hear ways that the city can support their efforts and address any issues or concerns.
