Conway and Faulkner County continue to be among the most dynamic locations for business in Arkansas and the region. Our education infrastructure, competitive operating environment and quality of life combine to offer the perfect location for a diverse group of businesses. You’ll find technology leaders like Acxiom and Hewlett Packard Enterprise next door to manufacturing giants International Paper and Kimberly Clark.
Often mistaken for a “suburb” of Little Rock, Conway is the secondary job market of the Little Rock-North Little Rock-Conway MSA. It is the epicenter of a multi-county economic engine for north central Arkansas we call the North Metro. Every day thousands of people choose Conway for health care services, education, shopping, dining and entertainment. Nearly 21,000 drive into the city for employment. This dynamic local economy is fueling a construction boom that is perhaps unmatched in the history of our community.
By establishing your business in Conway and Faulkner County, you will join a growing number of others who have discovered the advantages of this competitive business climate. We encourage you to review the in-depth economic information provided in this report. And we encourage you to reach out to the Chamber as we help you participate in one of the south’s most vibrant economies.
