About Us

Why invest in Scottsboro? Our town is full of opportunities for any business.
Scottsboro is located in a HUBZone. The HUBZone Empowerment Contracting Program allows small businesses, located in so-called “Historically Under-utilized Business Zones,” to negotiate sole source contracts and participate in restricted competition limited to HUBZone firms.
Fostering the growth of these federal contractors as viable businesses, for the long term, helps to empower communities, create jobs, and attract private investment. Qualified companies qualify for a 10% price evaluation preference in full and open competition.
To learn more about Scottsboro and Jackson County industries or to find assistance to begin a business or re-locating one to the area contact the Jackson County Economic Development Authority.
