While there were no mega deals developed for Baldwin County in 2018, the county did enjoy another stellar year of growth in manufacturing and retail as the county’s economy continued to boom. Baldwin County was number one in the state in incoming business, workforce talent attraction and job growth for the year.

“By all economic measures we had a great year in 2018,” Baldwin County Economic Development Alliance President and CEO Lee Lawson said. “It’s continued a great trend line for us economically for the last four going on five years. The economic trends and indicators for Baldwin County just have definitely led the state but are also ranking in the nation.”
