Why Commercial Development in Red Deer Makes Sense for Your Business

Are you on the cusp of making a decision on where to build your next commercial development in Alberta? If so, chances are that you have considered the Central Alberta area for your large scale retail and/or consumer based enterprise. The next question, is in regards to where exactly you intend on setting up shop. The Red Deer and Sylvan Lake area is certainly on your radar, but there are so many things to consider before breaking ground. Below, we detail 5 key things that make our home a prime location for your next commercial property development.

5 Reasons Why it’s a Good Idea to Build Your Commercial Property in Red Deer / Sylvan Lake Alberta

1. Location, Location, Location

The repeated words above are the key to the success of any commercial development. When it comes to our province, Red Deer and Sylvan Lake are it. Located at the near exact mid-point between the bustling metropolises of Edmonton (north) and Calgary (south) you (and your customers and suppliers) are no further than an hour and a half drive in either direction. This is perfect for destination-point enterprises that seek the financial benefits of managing a property outside of a commercial hub while remaining accessible to large scale markets. Look for commercial development to boom in the bounce-back years ahead, and get in on the new ground floor now.

2. Enduring Economic Capital of Canada

There is no need to sugarcoat the economic challenges that faced Central Alberta in late months of 2014 into the year of 2015. The energy sector had its challenges. However, there is a reason that the region has long been dubbed the economic capital of Canada. The young skilled/productive workforce, low operating costs, attractive tax regime, superior infrastructure, abundance of natural resources, and strong background portfolio in private sector investment all speak to our return to a prominent economic giant in the near future, commercial interests included.

3. Strong Consumer Base to Support Your Business

Sylvan Lake has a highly qualified consumer population nearing 15,000 residents. Red Deer has tipped well past the 100,000 resident scale, becoming the third most populous city in Alberta, and is on track to reach 175,000 residents over the next 25 years. Average income is higher here than in most Canadian cities and disposable income indicators indicate that households are ready to spend.

While both are great places to live, residents don’t have as many options to spend their disposable income as with their bigger city counterparts. This is great news for your commercial enterprise. Essentially, if you build it, they will come.

4. Municipal Support for New Commercial Developments
