Maine Is a Haven for Business

Maine has a rich political and industrial history, a history that has shaped Maine’s unique business culture. Entrepreneurship is a way of life in Maine, where 57.3% of the workforce is employed in a small business.

Among the benefits of operating in Maine are its fair regulations, strong opportunities for collaboration, and helpful government officials. That’s according to a survey of business owners by Business News Daily. The support for small business is robust in Maine, with a network of Small Business Development Centers assisting business owners along their path to success.

Maine residents enjoy a high quality of life with low crime rates and superior access to medical professionals. Its high rates of employment and voter turnout, along with its spacious homes, are all factors that make Maine a pleasant, safe, and healthy place to live. The state’s largest port, Portland, makes Livability.com’s list of the 2018 Top 100 Best Places to Live.

FranNet’s local experts know exactly how to choose a business that will make the most of Maine’s many advantages. Contact FranNet today to discover which business is right for you.
