Welcome to the Plano Economic Development Corporation website. Plano is a small city that boasts many amenities that have always ensured a high quality of life to its citizens. Our roots in industry and manufacturing are the foundation of our proud heritage and access to the rail and transportation have been the center of our life and our reason for prosperity. Set between two scenic creeks to the East and West and the Fox River on the South, Plano's landscape is truly unique among Illinois communities. The combination of the historic charm of our downtown district, the well traveled commercial corridor of our Route 34 thoroughfare and our rail served industrial, manufacturing and distribution center make Plano a very well rounded community. Our location in the fastest growing county in Illinois, makes us a popular consideration for the relocation of new commercial, manufacturing, industrial, distribution and retail interests. Our population is projected to grow from 5600 to more than 25,000 over the next 10 years.
If you are interested in being a part of a community on the verge of significant change, we encourage you to consider the City of Plano!
