Individual Help

27 Jun 2016

The power behind rural communities is based in their ability to work together. In Phelps County, the PCDC takes this to heart, working alongside local, regional, and state partners.

On the local side, businesses might be interested in the Holdrege Area Chamber of Commerce (http://www.holdregechamber.com/). Started in 1904, the Holdrege Chamber of Commerce continues to promote and educate business leaders while marketing the community’s amenities to attract new residents.

While the Chamber significantly supports existing businesses, the PCDC promotes further business growth by actively seeking new manufacturers, warehousing facilities, value-added ag processing plants and other economic drivers. For more information on these or similar organizations be sure to visit our website here: http://www.phelpscountyne.com/phelps
