Regional logistics are supported through access to two Class-1 railroads, the Union Pacific, and Burlington Northern Santa Fe; plus the Nebraska, Kansas, Colorado Short-line. 

 A wide-range of discrete and process manufacturers call Northeast Colorado home. And for good reason: Affordable rents, skilled labor, specialized and tailored training programs through the Colorado Community College System, plus easy access to major rail and transcontinental highways offer companies the ability to compete in global markets. 

Agriculture is what attracted settlers to Colorado’s Northeastern region in the mid-to-late 1800s, and it continues to serve as a principle economic driver for the region, today. Logan, Morgan, Phillips, Sedgwick, Washington and Yuma counties account for nearly half of Colorado’s total $6.3 billion in ag production.

Northeast Colorado’s interconnected electric grid provides the perfect environment to access reliable electric abundant power supply. The region’s electric capacity is further enhanced by generation from the 60 MW Spring Canyon Wind Energy Center, the 505 MW capacity from Pawnee Station, and 243 MW of peak load capacity provided by Heorot Power Management, LLC’s Brush, Colorado facility. 

Our central location allows transportation carriers the ability to reach a large radius across the Central U.S. within a single-day’s drive. 

Northeast Colorado’s strong agriculture production economy has drawn a diverse list of food processing companies that have benefitted from locating close to the commodity growers who provide the raw inputs for their value-add manufacturing. The region is ready to further expand its manufacturing base with businesses that can benefit from the synergies and cost-efficiencies offered by this established food-ecosystem.
