Description
Whether you have a manufacturing plant or are looking for the ideal place for a retail store, Tarpon Springs is the perfect place to be.
Tarpon Springs is a visitor destination for everyone. Located on the Gulf of Mexico and the Anclote River, it has an active fishing port and working waterfront.
Tarpon Springs' many and varied retail areas give small business owners a selection of opportunities. US Hwy 19 is the major artery that takes you from the north, all the way through Pinellas County and on to Sarasota. The larger hotels are on US Hwy 19, making them perfect for business travelers and families who are looking for pool-side rooms.
More than 20 small shopping centers provide business locations throughout the city, as well as the historic downtown and Greek Sponge Docks areas. Tarpon Springs currently offers more than 230 acres of industrial-zoned land ready to be developed into light manufacturing and distribution. Its proximity to US Hwy 19, makes it ideal land for development with very few homes.
The mission of the Chamber of Commerce is to help our businesses thrive and to assist new businesses opening their doors in town. If you are new in the area and looking for help in starting a new business or just need help in growing a business, we have the tools to give you that help. We can help with a business plan, marketing plans or just ideas on how to be successful in Tarpon Springs.
