The Alliance mission is to create an open line of communication between the business community and our municipal partners to help existing businesses hire, grow and expand in Orange City. Business Retention and Expansion programs (BRE) are used to collect information from local businesses during interviews, noting local trends and providing immediate feedback on the best way to help these local businesses grow. Business Retention data is also used to forecast business trends so that city leaders and policy-makers can quickly address these challenges and create a positive business environment.
Key program components include allowing businesses to openly discuss operational challenges, to identify workforce issues, assist in helping international expansion, and to provide businesses ongoing development and mentoring support.
