The arrival of Wal-Mart's distribution center in 2000 was a major cue for the economy of Carroll County. A new water reservoir, fibre-opitc cable network, expanded runway, technology-enhanced learning center, and a small business incubator program has also contributed to the advancement of the area's economic situation. The county is home to over 100 manufacturers and six international firms. Four highly developed industrial parks add to an already accredited workforce. The major employers of the area are Southwire, Tanner Health System, Carroll County Schools, Gold Kist, Bremen-Bowdon Investment and State University of West Georgia.
