Financing your business's expansion or relocation — or funding a startup venture — can be a difficult task.

Luckily, Greater Hazleton offers a variety of financing incentives that make our area very attractive to those wanting to do business here.

Many of our properties have been approved under the Keystone Opportunity Zone program, a state program which provides relief from many state and local taxes into the next decade.

CAN DO, the area's economic development firm, has an excellent financing section on their web site, detailing the many diffferent grant and loan programs that are available from a wide variety of sources. Click here to visit the CAN DO site, and browse the "Financing" section for specific information on financial assistance programs.

You should also visit the City of Hazleton's web site, which features an economic development section that contains information about programs, loans and grants that are available for properties within the City.
