Workforce & Industrial Development
Nestled in the scenic foothills of the Cascade Range, Maple Valley has emerged as a dynamic location for industrial and commercial growth in King County, Washington. The city’s strategic location along Highway 169 and proximity to major transportation corridors like I-405 and SR-18 make it an attractive option for logistics, light manufacturing, and distribution operations seeking access to the greater Seattle-Tacoma region.
Maple Valley is experiencing increased demand for modern industrial space, with new business parks and flex developments catering to companies looking for scalable, high-quality facilities. Local vacancy rates remain low, reflecting both the area’s desirability and the limited supply of shovel-ready sites in King County.
The city and region are committed to workforce development, partnering with local colleges and training providers to ensure a pipeline of skilled workers in trades, advanced manufacturing, and technology. King County’s workforce programs and the state’s Career Connect Washington initiative help employers upskill existing staff and connect with new talent.
Washington State also offers a suite of incentives for businesses investing in Maple Valley, including sales and use tax exemptions for manufacturing, workforce training grants, and support for infrastructure improvements. The Maple Valley-Black Diamond Chamber of Commerce and city economic development staff provide hands-on assistance to companies navigating incentives, permitting, and site selection.
