Sharing the Vision
 

The SADC is a non-profit economic development corporation formed under the Texas Development Corporation Act of 1979. As directed by this Act, the Corporation’s focuses its efforts on the promotion and development of business enterprises that create or retain primary jobs.

Primary jobs are defined as those positions currently held by employees at local companies such as Multi-Chem Group LLC, Hirschfeld Industries LP, Gandy Ink and Aermotor Windmill Company, Inc. These type companies create or sell a product or service that is ultimately exported to regional, statewide, national, or international markets. The result is a greater demand for locally consumed goods and services and the creation of new job opportunities in retail services, suppliers and professional services such as attorneys, contractors, educators and physicians. Capitalizing on a wide array of goods and services and a diverse business mix is what ensures long term economic sustainability for both San Angelo and the region.
 

The Corporation acts as the economic development arm of the City of San Angelo and therefore strives to develop strategies and policies which align with the vision established by the San Angelo City Council.

• Increase partnerships with institutions of higher learning to retain and attract an educate workforce.
• Incorporate better coordination between all taxing entities related to incentives and  advocacy on common issues.
