The Jersey City EDC is committed to promoting economic growth throughout Jersey City through real estate development programs, business incentives and more. We are here to help you succeed whether you already have a business in Jersey City or if you considering locating here.
Mayor Jerramiah T. Healy welcomes you to the JCEDC website. Visit the site to see what we have to offer.

There are a number of businesses relocating to our city. We hope that you will consider doing that as well.
When businesses succeed in
Jersey City, so does everyone who lives and works here.

There are many reasons businesses continue to thrive in Jersey City, and a key factor for much of this success is the Jersey City Economic Development Corporation. The EDC is a multifaceted organization that provides sound advice and counseling, expert direction and services, and financial assistance through the Community Lending and Investment Corporation. Additionally, the EDC and its programs work in conjunction with numerous State and Federal resources.

The Jersey City Economic Development Corporation, and the Jersey City Urban Enterprise Zone program it administers, continue to fuel the unprecedented growth that Jersey City has realized during the course of the past several years. The dynamic and strategic partnerships between the City of Jersey City, the State of New Jersey and private businesses of all types and sizes, have transformed our neighborhoods, helped us improve our services and expanded the arts and culture that are found here.

One of our greatest resources is the UEZ's reduced sales tax, which allows many of the stores in our City to charge just
3.5% sales tax—half the standard tax! That's why our motto is, "Save Gas, Save Tax, Stay Local in Jersey City."

We invite you to explore this website and to learn more about the many ways the Jersey CIty Economic Development Corporation and the Urban Enterprise Zone Program may be helpful to you and your business.
