Salisbury-Wicomico Economic Development recently launched its new website and the first of a series of two-minute videos showcasing why the Salisbury-Wicomico County region is a great place for business and living.

"Marketing our community and telling our story is critical to economic development. This new website and video convey the pride we have in our special community that we recognize and invite others to explore," stated Jake Day, Mayor of Salisbury.

The redesigned site illustrates the story of partnership by highlighting success stories from companies that have started, grown or relocated to the area.

"Wicomico is Open for Business and this redesigned website, along with an introductory video, helps communicate that message as well as the strength of our community," said Wicomico County Executive Bob Culver.

Salisbury-Wicomico Economic Development, Inc. is a public-private partnership founded in 1968 to enhance the area's economy through job retention, job growth and economic diversification. Visit the new website at www.swed.org.
