梅里马克山谷正在酝酿之中

WeAreMV is a regional marketing and economic development initiative that features properties, projects, successes, and business opportunities in the Valley. Here you will find a one-stop resource with municipal contacts, zoning designations, community information, and properties available for sale and for lease. We are here to support businesses that create a prosperous and resilient economy in the Merrimack Valley. The Merrimack Valley Economic Development Corporation (MVED) is currently designated as a Regional Economic Development Organization (REDO) charged with business development and assistance. The primary goal of the REDO is to enhance the overall economic well-being of the Merrimack Valley through attracting and retaining businesses, encouraging entrepreneurship, and fostering innovation. This work includes outreach to businesses across the region, learning about their operations and identifying challenge areas where the state and municipalities can provide assistance.

我们的历史

WeAreMerrimackValley 建立在历史、行业和技术的原则之上,是志同道合的组织之间合作的结果。 2004 年,大黑弗希尔商会与梅里马克谷规划委员会 (MVPC) 接洽,希望在黑弗希尔市开发一个促进经济发展的场地。

该项目作为 Haverhill Means Business 启动。这个最初的项目导致 2006 年与梅里马克谷商会一起扩大了该计划。梅里马克谷意味着商业随后被创建以支持整个梅里马克谷地区,其中包括最初的 HMB 站点。这个区域范围的项目产生了一个屡获殊荣的技术先进的网站,并自豪地演变成 WeAreMerrimackValley.com——一个重新焕发活力的标志、品牌和网站。

In 2018, the Merrimack Valley Gas Disaster generated an immediate need for business recovery assistance in Andover, North Andover, and Lawrence. In order to address the challenges caused by this crisis, a new Targeted Economic Development Strategy (TEDS) program was piloted in 2020 with the help of the Essex County Community Foundation and the Lawrence Partnership. When the Covid-19 national emergency impacted the region, there was a greater need for business recovery assistance across the Merrimack Valley. In 2022, the MA Office of Business Development (MOBD) designated MVED as a Regional Economic Development Organization (REDO) tasked with expanding this work to aid in the economic recovery of the entire Merrimack Valley region. This work continues today alongside our local and state partners to create long-term regional economic stability and resiliency.

持续支持

The work of the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission is made possible thanks to an annual grant from the Economic Development Administration (EDA) under the U.S. Department of Commerce. EDA seeks to drive innovation and competitiveness, preparing American regions for growth and success in the worldwide economy. As a Regional Economic Development Organization (REDO), we partner with the Massachusetts Office of Business Development (MOBD) to support businesses seeking assistance from the Commonwealth. Through this partnership we facilitate regional projects that grow businesses and the Massachusetts economy. We are proud to work with EDA and MOBD to support and promote business within our region.
