Ascension Parish enjoys a diverse, vibrant and growing business community. Over the past several years, Ascension Parish has consistently been one of the fastest growing parishes in the state of Louisiana. This steady population growth has created a wealth of demand for a variety of goods, service-based businesses and industrial investments.

These efforts have created a positive and inviting environment necessary to attract new investment, as well as support established businesses within Ascension Parish.
The physical location of the parish is also a contributing factor to its economic development success, located approximately 60 miles from New Orleans and 30 miles from Baton Rouge. In addition, the parish offers an exceptional education system, strong infrastructure, easy access to markets, as well as a skilled and available work force.
