Dayton Economic Development Corporation launches new site to drive economic development activity

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

DEDC’s new site combines a modern design with easy navigation to help tell Dayton’s story and encourage businesses to invest and grow in the city

Dayton, TX – Dayton Economic Development Corporation (DEDC), an organization committed to attracting quality jobs and retaining businesses, has launched a new website designed to make it easy for business owners, site selectors, and others to find essential information about opportunities in the city. Designed in partnership with Golden Shovel Agency, the leading marketing and communications partner exclusively dedicated to economic development, the new site provides a modern, user-friendly gateway to the organization’s essential services, including site selection tools and business attraction resources. 

Golden Shovel Agency worked with DEDC to showcase Dayton’s strategic location near the Houston metropolitan area as well as the presence of amenities including a rail-serviced industrial park, affordable housing, available building sites and economic development programs that make Dayton a key location for business investment.

“Economic development starts with your online presence, and being competitive requires a website that makes it easy to find relevant and accurate information,” said Chris Jarmon, DEDC’s director of economic development. “This site will help us showcase Dayton and highlight everything that makes it such a desirable location for business investment or reinvestment.” 

The new website features:

• Clean, intuitive navigation for ease of use across computers and mobile devices;
• Easy access to information about incentives, location advantages, and available building sites;
• Updated content and visuals that showcase Dayton’s lifestyle, amenities, and business-friendly climate; and
• Dedicated resources for businesses, entrepreneurs, and residents.

The new site was designed from the ground up to highlight Dayton’s unique opportunities. Golden Shovel Agency drew upon its experience working with the site selectors who help choose where businesses locate to create sites that put development and business attraction tools front and center. 

“Golden Shovel was very responsive to our comments and concerns and very easy to work with overall,” said Jarmon. “They collaborated with us to create a website that puts our strengths front and center and truly highlights the partnerships that make economic development work in Dayton.”
