The main selling points of my idea that have to be stressed to a prospective company are: Tax breaks by the local government - this is your biggest stick, use it well. Low financing rates from local sources - this is a win for a prospective company, and it keeps money from leaving town, a big win for local bank(s), who can then turn around and finance developement. Costomized infrastructure - We'll build it to your specs! This is a powerfull incentive when combined with the other two. Rather than trying to comply with complicated permitting regulations and costs associated with developed communities to make some preexisting plant comply with needs, a prospective company can get a brand new facility with exactly what they need. Quality of life - this is just as important as any of the "serious" considerations above. What kind of house can I afford if I live here vs. somewhere else? What kind of schooling for my kids? What kind of activities? hunting? fishing? sports? So, what kind of industry should be lobbied? Hmmm good question, maybe not so much an industry but type of companies, how about frozen food distributors, or building supply distributors, or light manufacturers, importers of machinery or machine tool, or manufacturing supplies. A selection of companies whose proximity are beneficial to each other. That's pretty general, but without answering many other questions it is the most I could say. I don't see why many towns in Canada don't already fit this bill.
