Powering Growth With Top-Level Site Location Services

In support of TVA’s mission to make life better for the people who live and work in our Valley region, TVA Economic Development powers community growth and recovery by recruiting and retaining companies that invest in the region.

Site Development

Working closely with regional economic development organizations, community leaders, and local, regional, and federal partners, InvestReady helps communities identify and prepare properties for rapid development. Certain projects may be eligible to receive grants through TVA’s InvestPrep, a program that helps prepare sites and buildings, making them more marketable for development.

Project Management

Our target market specialists take an active role, working impartially with state, regional, and local economic development organizations to complete information requests, organize site visits, prepare incentives, and more.

Technical & Design Services

We’re here to support your team by making it easier to envision your building on our properties. We’re experts in mapping and site evaluations, 2D and 3D site plan renderings, drone surveys, conceptual earthwork studies, immersive virtual reality tours, and 360-photo and video.

Research

We dig data. Our team has access to a wide variety of public and subscription-based databases and our analysts can provide summaries, demographic and occupation analyses, mapping, commuting patterns, cost of living indices and data analysis on specific sites and regions.

Explore available sites using our properties and communities tool. Filter by Opportunity Zones, property type, size, location and more. Take a detailed dive into our communities, and get the scoop on population, housing, and the local workforce.

  • Without this program [InvestPrep], I can confidently say that we would not have announced the largest announcement in our city’s history.

    -Mandy White, Greater Jackson Chamber Chief Economic Development Officer

  • Our community has received such great support from the TVA, helping our students learn new skills and now, helping expand the Hickory Industrial Park to provide new opportunities for jobs and investment. With our recent attraction of Osmundson and recent expansions, our community is bustling with economic development. Mayfield and Graves County are so thankful for all the great work the TVA does to support economic development in our community.

    – Kathy O’Nan, City of Mayfield Mayor

  • To say that TVA’s site and product development programs have made a tremendous difference in our recruitment efforts would be an understatement.

    -Mandy White, Greater Jackson Chamber Chief Economic Development Officer

  • It is an honor and a privilege to be able to be a small part of a group that is enacting real, tangible, positive change in our communities.
