Relocating an operational business to Groesbeck is a bigger decision than opening a storefront, and it calls for bigger support. These programs are built for companies bringing real capital investment and livable wage jobs to town.
One point of contact for finding the right site or building, including available business park land, and for working with the City and utility providers on power, water, sewer, access and permits.
GEDC investment tied to results, like jobs created, payroll and capital invested. Support is paid as those commitments are met, under an agreement approved in a public meeting.
Incentive packages built around what a specific relocation project actually needs, which can combine programs, property and performance-based support.
Some projects are best structured as a Texas Chapter 380 agreement with the City, or a blend of a 380 and an EDC performance agreement. GEDC helps structure the deal and coordinates it with the City.
Help identifying, training, and building a workforce pipeline for new positions, including partnerships like Navarro College.
Let's Talk Specifics
We benchmark against the MIT Living Wage Calculator for Limestone County - currently $17.90/hour for a single adult with no children, updated as the underlying data changes.
Every project is checked against the same baseline first - a real local market, proven ownership, and a financially sound business - then a range of factors that depend on the type of business.
Reach out with your project - capital investment, timeline, and expected jobs - and we'll tell you what's realistic.
Tell us about the project, and we'll tell you what's on the table.
New Locators & Job Creators
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.
