Queen Creek Named 2024 Best City for Business by Arizona Chamber of Commerce

 

Queen Creek continues to thrive as a hub for business growth and innovation, earning the prestigious title of “2024 Best City for Business” from the Arizona Chamber of Commerce and Industry. This accolade reflects the town’s relentless efforts to create a business-friendly environment that attracts and supports diverse enterprises.

 

Major Developments and Investments

At the June 5, 2024 Queen Creek Town Council meeting, Mayor Julia Wheatley proudly presented the award, emphasizing the town’s strategic initiatives to bolster business growth. The recognition highlights Queen Creek’s significant contributions to regional development, particularly in the advanced manufacturing sector.

One of the most notable recent investments in Queen Creek is from LG Energy Solution, which announced a $5.5 billion investment in an advanced manufacturing facility. This project is expected to create thousands of jobs, aligning with Arizona’s goals to lead in the high-tech industry.

Strategic Planning and Growth

Queen Creek is one of the fastest-growing communities in the United States, guided by a comprehensive General Plan. This plan identifies key growth areas, such as the northeastern region owned by the Arizona State Land Department, encouraging private investment and job creation.

The town is also seeing significant developments in its commercial sectors, providing residents with new conveniences and amenities. Recent additions include Costco, a second Fry’s Marketplace, Sprouts, Target, and Safeway.

This summer, three new roadway connectors will open, enhancing accessibility and establishing a sense of place with parklets and shaded areas. To further enhance its business-friendly environment, the Town Council recently approved two ordinances aimed at increasing efficiencies for Development Services customers and staff. These measures are designed to reduce timelines and streamline processes, making it easier for businesses to thrive in Queen Creek.
