Site Availability

Frisco is one of the hottest markets in North Texas, with a strong demand for corporate sites, lifestyle centers, and mixed-use developments to meet the needs of new, expanding, and relocating businesses. These developments come in a range sizes, from single- and two-story buildings to megadevelopments set on hundreds of acres. And there’s still room to grow.

A Ready Pipeline of Talent

The Frisco EDC is ready to help meet the staffing needs of new, expanding, and relocating companies throughout the Frisco area by identifying and ensuring that talent with the necessary skill sets and qualifications are available when you need them.  To cultivate this ready pipeline of potential candidates, the Frisco EDC works closely with community and business leaders, educational institutions, and city and state entities on an ongoing basis.

Contributing to the talent pool is the city’s close proximity to the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex, where over 350,000 students are enrolled in numerous universities and colleges throughout the region. The high performance of Frisco’s school system has led to an incredible high school graduation rate of 98%, with the majority of students seeking out post-secondary education to earn career-related certification or enter traditional degree programs.

Additionally, Frisco ISD uses its “small-school model” and Career and Technical Education Center, with more than 30 learning programs, to provide students with the opportunity to explore and experience a wide range of career choices prior to graduation.
