Lower Operating Costs

Worthington is committed to strong economic growth for its businesses. The city enjoys one of the lowest sales tax rates in the Midwest, and there are many exemptions for certain taxes on business property.

Businesses also benefit from the ample, continuous and affordable energy sources and from a state-of-the-art telecommunications infrastructure that provides access to data, cable, Internet and wireless communications. All of these combine to lower start-up, expansion and operating costs for our businesses.

“Since 1955, we have been a member of this community. Today, we’ve grown to more than 60 locations around the world and more than 7500 employees. When we needed to expand our facilities, the choice to move our corporate headquarters to Worthington was easy.

With the opportunities for community involvement, favorable economic climate and prime location for our workforce, we’re proud to have Worthington in our name and proud to be headquartered here.”
