The Plymouth Foundation

The Plymouth Foundation is a private non-profit organization dedicated to enhancing quality of life through sound economic growth. We support government and private-sector initiatives to attract, retain, and strengthen employment opportunities and increase the community’s commercial and industrial tax base.

Our overarching purpose is to help businesses locate or expand in Plymouth and the surrounding area. To support business retention and encourage new businesses to choose our community, the Foundation offers free, confidential technical assistance and advisory services to businesses.

Economic Development is quality of life. By managing and redirecting resources, the Plymouth Foundation is focused on achieving growth that improves the experience of our residents and guests. Traditional economic development strategies used to focus on building things, like highways, roads and industrial sites. Modern strategies are diversified and are intended to keep people active in the marketplace for as long as possible. The Plymouth Foundation has curated a portfolio that guides our economic development strategy into five segments: Land Use, Small Business Development, Entrepreneurship & Innovation, Workforce Development, and Marketing, Events and Cultural Affairs (MECA).
