Wetumpka Business and Industry
The climate of the area brings mild winters, pleasant summers, and lingering spring and fall seasons. An average annual temperature of approximately 61 degrees affords the growing season to exceed 253 days. The moderate climate, combined with the richness of the soil, contributes greatly to the county's more than $24 million agricultural industry, which includes the production of cotton, beef, nursery stock, dairy farming, pecans, fruits and vegetables.
Industrial growth has reached an all-time high. In recent years, Frontier Yarns, Russell Corporation, Quality Networks, Central Contracting, Information Transport Solutions and many other industries have invested millions of dollars and created hundreds of new jobs. The sustaining businesses of Tru-Turn, Inc. and Bass Lumber Company, along with others, have played an important role in Wetumpka's recent growth.
