High-quality jobs change communities.

When people have the opportunity to learn, grow, and build careers close to home, the entire Santa Clarita Valley benefits.

As Ken Striplin, City Manager for the City of Santa Clarita Government, shares, the mission of the City and SCVEDC is about more than growth, it’s about supporting the future of our workforce and creating opportunities for people to work in the community they call home.

Through collaboration between the City of Santa Clarita, SCVEDC, education partners, and local businesses, we’re helping prepare a workforce that can support the future of our region.

Because economic development isn’t just about business.

It’s about people, families, and quality of life.

Remo was considering leaving California.

But when the company looked at the Santa Clarita Valley, they saw a different path forward. One that allowed them to grow while taking care of the employees who helped build the company.

For Robert Shen, President of Remo Inc., that mattered.

The Santa Clarita Valley offered space to consolidate operations, access to key shipping and transportation routes, and a strong workforce environment that helped Remo stay connected to its employees and its community.

Today, Remo continues to invest here, which is a reminder that business attraction is not just about bringing companies in. It is about helping companies find a place where they can grow, contribute, and stay.

That is economic development in action.
