Workforce & Industrial Development

Located just west of Phoenix, Avondale, Arizona is rapidly establishing itself as a strategic industrial and logistics destination in the Southwest. Its position along the I-10 corridor provides direct access to major markets in California, Texas, and Mexico, making it a preferred location for distribution, e-commerce, and advanced manufacturing operations.

Recent industrial developments—such as the Fairway 10 and Avondale Commerce Park projects—are adding millions of square feet of Class A warehouse and manufacturing space to the region. Vacancy rates remain tight as demand continues to outpace new supply, driven by the area’s population growth and proximity to the Phoenix metro area.

Avondale’s workforce pipeline is supported by partnerships with local community colleges and workforce agencies, helping employers recruit and train talent in logistics, manufacturing, and technology. The city’s economic development office offers tailored support for site selection, permitting, and connections to workforce programs.

Arizona’s statewide incentives, including the Qualified Facility Tax Credit and the Arizona Job Training Program, provide financial support for companies investing in new facilities or expanding operations. Maricopa County and the City of Avondale also offer local incentives and expedited permitting to accelerate project timelines.
