business development in la pine
La Pine is experiencing strong growth in new businesses as the demand for additional services provides excellent opportunities for entrepreneurs. Many existing businesses are relocating in La Pine to larger facilities or expanding current sites to meet those needs. Construction is beginning on a greatly enlarged grocery superstore, and the addition of a second national chain grocery store is in the works.
Light industrial businesses that complement La Pine’s clean, rural lifestyle are beginning construction plans in the Newberry and Finley Butte business and industrial parks located on the east side of La Pine. These well-planned facilities located close to Central Oregon’s north-south highway corridor and rail facilities are attracting industries that can offer family-wage jobs for La Pine residents. Many businesses in other Oregon communities and out of state are expressing strong interest in La Pine’s livability, accessibility and the lower cost of property acquisition.
