Growth doesn't always mean a whole new business - sometimes it's a new service added to what you already offer, or more physical space to work with. GEDC can invest alongside businesses making that move.
Investment support for adding a service you don't currently offer, or expanding capacity on one you do, so you can take on more work and serve more customers.
Investment support for growing your space or your reach - moving to a better facility, converting an existing building to a new use, or reaching a new audience, a new trade area or customers online. Depending on the project, that could include available GEDC property or help through the Woodson's Local Build program.
A partnership between GEDC and the local hardware store for businesses remodeling as part of an expansion. Projects get contractor-level care and pricing through the partnership, and GEDC reimburses a percentage of the expenditure on top of that.
For larger expansions that add jobs or major capital investment, GEDC can structure a performance agreement tied to the results.
Support for training and developing your team, available from day one, no matter how long you've been open - including free custom and business classes through Navarro College.
Eligibility depends on the program and the specifics of the expansion. Reach out and we'll walk through what applies to your situation.
Ideally, yes. Reaching out early means we can look at the full scope of what you're planning, make sure it qualifies, and structure the investment correctly - the earlier you reach out, the more of your eligibility is protected.
Reach out with what you're working on. Depending on the project, it might be a single program, a combination of a few, or something more custom - we'll send the right application once we know what fits.
Tell us about the project, and we'll tell you what's on the table.
Commercial Facility & Service Expansions
A few details help us point you to the right program.
Founded as a stop on the Houston and Texas Central Railroad, Groesbeck is the seat of Limestone County, set where TX-14 and TX-164 cross in the heart of Central Texas. It’s a small town with a big reach: Waco in 40 minutes, Dallas–Fort Worth and Houston within an easy drive, and Lake Limestone just down the road. A walkable red-brick downtown and deep ranching roots give it room to grow, without losing what makes it home.
