Business

Businesses are as varied and diverse as consumers. You can build a business from the ground up, lease an existing space or take over a current business. Every project is unique and may require varying levels of approval.

Whatever your path, we are here to help. 

The City of Tuscaloosa’s economic development staff serve as liaisons between entrepreneurs, business owners, developers and other city departments. We are available to meet individually or as a group to ensure your project advances in a timely manner.

We are committed to advancing economic opportunities in the City of Tuscaloosa. Our staff coordinates with community partners to retain, attract and promote expansion of new and existing businesses. We can assist with everything from site selection, data, permits and general questions about Tuscaloosa.

Let us be your liaison and development partner through this process.
