The foundation for economic growth in northwestern Minnesota starts with strong anchor businesses, such as Digi-Key and Marvin Windows.
But future growth hinges as much on meeting employees’ desire for a good latte and a night at the theater as it does on creating more job perks. That's why area business and civic leaders have embraced an economic development strategy that includes boosting the quality of life in the region.
Outdoor activities like snowmobiling and fishing are popular and appeal to many potential job seekers.
