Welcome

Nestled in the Northeastern corner of Ohio, Growth Partnership for Ashtabula County is the one-stop, centrally managed economic development organization for Ashtabula County, Ohio. The mission of our organization is “to coordinate and direct public and private efforts to achieve economic prosperity and improve the quality of life for all of Ashtabula County."

Ashtabula County is Ohio’s largest county and is located in the northeastern tip of the state, bordering Pennsylvania to the East and Lake Erie to the North. We are within a day’s drive of the 13 largest metropolitan areas east of the Mississippi River and a mere four and a half hours to Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Ashtabula County offers a highly skilled and affordable workforce, low cost of living, rural environment, deep harbor ports, and is linked to the country by the interstate highway system.

The area is the cradle of the reinforced fiberglass composite industry in the U.S. and produces more polymers and plastics per capita than anywhere in the country. Although most businesses are U.S. based, Ashtabula County has a large international presence of Norwegian, Japanese, German, British, Canadian, and most recently Taiwanese manufacturing plants.

Growth Partnership for Ashtabula County wants to become your partner, please join us as we mold the future of Ashtabula County. To learn more about all that Ashtabula County has to offer please contact the professional staff at Growth Partnership today to find out how we can help.
