"The team at EDEDC has made a profound impact on our work redeveloping property (2509 Hayes) and attracting businesses. Their efforts have allowed us to properly engage the community leaders in our projects, attract businesses to the area, and pursue economic development resources at every level. They have been a true pleasure to work with."

"Abbey Bemis and the full ECEDC Team were incredibly helpful. We engaged with them very early on in our process to learn what resources were available in Erie County, and to get guidance on regulatory agencies, grants, HR, location assistance, and employee benefit providers. They were very responsive and enthusiastic and we really felt like they were ready and willing to do anything they could to help us. ECEDC is a pretty amazing resource for any new startup in Erie County and we are very grateful for their assistance and ongoing support of Everwild Spirits."
Rick Lynch, Everwild Spirits LLC
