Existing Business
Why Dubuque?
The Greater Dubuque area is thriving because of our existing businesses. Your commitment to our community is important to the success of our workforce and community as a whole.

A Dubuque location will save both time and money. Forbes Magazine noted that Dubuque’s cost of doing business is the 13th lowest in the entire U.S. According to Paragon Decision Resources, an international site location consultant, Dubuque’s overall costs for a manufacturing operation are much more competitive than some of the nation’s leading industry centers—a whopping 31% lower than Minneapolis, 24% lower than Detroit, 21% lower than Cleveland, and 24% lower than St. Louis.

Rising fuel costs are shrinking profits. That’s why Dubuque’s location is key. Dubuque is within just a 2 day drive of 74.6% of the entire United States population. Dubuque also sits in the backyard of the 3rd largest city in the United States: Chicago—including the city’s massive inter modal and logistics capabilities.

The Greater Dubuque area has many benefits for businesses, in addition to location, a low cost of doing business, job training, and an exceptional workforce, Greater Dubuque Development offers many services to assist you with challenges and opportunities.
