TOWN OF OKOTOKS
OKOTOKS
The ideal destination for business investors
When considering the ideal location, Okotoks checks all the boxes! With the Sheep River at its heart, quick mountain access, small-town charm and urban amenities, Okotoks’ high quality of life is evident!
Okotoks also has the necessary technology for business operations, including 5G and fibre optic throughout the entire community.
Compared to other communities of similar size in the region, Okotoks comes in second-highest for educational attainment and highest for total apprentices registered (proportionately). Given the increasing need for skilled labour, this is a huge plus!
A significant benefit for any type of business is that the Town of Okotoks has no additional business tax. The Town also has one of the lowest non-residential property taxes compared to similar communities
in the area.
Considering building from the ground up? With over 200 acres of both shovel-ready
and greenfield land available for development, Okotoks has the space you need!
With a population over 30,000, Okotoks has a demographic makeup of predominately educated people of an average age of 35 which lends itself well to new and expanding businesses.
Being in close proximity to Calgary is also advantageous; it is approximately 15kms away, allowing market access to
over 1.4 million residents.
The Economic Development
team is available to help support new/expanding businesses in our community and look forward to your call!
