While a focus of the South West Kentucky Economic Development Council is helping bring new industries to the region, they also play a role in helping keep those who have located here happy and productive.
Tony Prim, Associate Director of Business Retention for the three-county effort, tells Your News Edge he handles things related to keeping businesses here and their potential growth.
One of the issues lately, Prim says, is helping them find more workforce.
Prim adds there are several ways to look for local job opportunities.
Prim says the local job market is better than most places, with wages increasing over the last few years. He adds the governments of Christian, Todd, and Trigg counties continue to work together to make the area desirable for companies looking to locate or expand their businesses.
