About Us

Statewide Services

We’re a team within the Washington State Department of Community, Trade & Economic Development that helps companies – both in-state and out-of-state – establish and grow in Washington.

In-Bound Investment

By working with management and their consultants, Statewide Services provides confidential, no-cost assistance with every aspect of the expansion/relocation.

We conduct:

• In-state location searches based on each company’s unique operating requirements;
• Provide due diligence support on a variety of matters such as labor market, workforce training, taxes, regulations, financing, transportation, and incentives, and;
• We partner with communities on infrastructure development, permitting and other actions in support of your project.

Economic Development Partnership

Our relationships make it all work. We have strong partnerships with economic development councils, port districts, industry and trade associations, education and training institutions, cities, counties, and federal agencies. Washington’s economic development network has been working together for many years in support of companies already here, as well as those about to be.

We work at your pace, on your schedule, on your issues. The Statewide Services team welcomes your questions and requests.
