States from across the country are trying to attract California companies to relocate through a variety of incentive programs, however the Inland Empire area is leveraging the California Enterprise Zone program to retain local businesses.

Bob Dutton, a writer for ‘The Sun’ reported the following two examples of how the EZ program works in the San Bernadino area:

For example, U.S. Rubber Recycling Inc., a manufacturer of recycled rubber flooring products, has been aggressively recruited to relocate to Arizona. They ultimately chose to stay in California because of the incentives and tax credits offered by the Enterprise Zone Program. As a result, 100 good paying jobs remain in California.

A representative from Young Electric Sign Co., a manufacturer of custom electric signs, also shared how they relocated their Southern California operations to San Bernardino solely because of the Enterprise Zone Program. The incentives compelled them to stop looking in other areas because the San Bernardino Valley Enterprise Zone provided the incentives needed to grow their business and staff.
