Haliburton County Business and Retention Survey
<p>The County of Haliburton is located in Central Ontario covering 4000 km2, providing residence for over<br /><br />16 000 people. Haliburton Highlands promotes a high quality of life offering recreational activities for all<br /><br />seasons, robust arts and cultural community and a strong business sector creating an ideal location for<br /><br />development and investment.<br /><br />The Business Retention and Expansion project was initiated by the Haliburton Highlands Chamber of<br /><br />Commerce with the objective to facilitate business planning and growth by identifying and interviewing<br /><br />local companies, associations and service groups to determine needs, barriers and opportunities. 15%<br /><br />of the businesses were interviewed resulting in a significant representation of the business sector.<br /><br />The businesses boasted a high quality of life and are satisfied with the essential services, support from<br /><br />municipality, land costs and labour costs. There is generally a positive attitude regarding the future of<br /><br />the business community reflected by the number of planned expansions and capital investments.<br /><br />There are many positive attributes to the business community, however the businesses highlighted<br /><br />many barriers to growth including the seasonality of the market, financial support, labour attraction and<br /><br />training, information accessibility, marketing and infrastructure. These barriers are addressed with a<br /><br />comprehensive action plan that contains strategies and evaluation tools.<br /><br />The community based approach of the Business Retention and Expansion project will create local<br /><br />commitment while developing a knowledge base of what drives their local economy and how they can<br /><br />become proactive in setting the direction for long term community sustainability and growth. This will<br /><br />ensure the community 'buy-in' necessary to implement the BRE Action Plan.</p>
