Central Elgin is a great place to start a business. It is minutes from London and the 401, which provides direct access to Windsor and Detroit (to the west), and the GTA (to the east).

Central Elgin has a suburban population combined with a strong agricultural industry. Agricultural businesses include raising livestock, plus growing beans, corn, wheat, orchard fruits, cash crops, and specialty items. 

Water sports, commercial and recreational fishing, and tourism are growing, especially in Port Stanley.

Detailed information about demographics, labour force, market access, incentives, and taxes can be found on Elgin County's website.
