Workforce & Industrial Development

Nestled in northeastern Oklahoma, Vera offers a strategic location for industrial and logistics operations seeking proximity to both Tulsa and the broader Bartlesville region. The town benefits from access to major highways such as US-75 and US-60, connecting businesses to regional and national markets with ease. While Vera itself is a smaller community, it sits within Washington County, which has seen increased interest from manufacturers and distribution firms looking for affordable land, lower operating costs, and a supportive business climate.

Washington County and the State of Oklahoma provide a suite of incentives to attract new industry, including the Quality Jobs Program and Investment/New Jobs Tax Credit Package. These programs can significantly reduce costs for expanding or relocating companies. The Oklahoma Department of Commerce also offers site selection assistance and workforce recruitment support tailored to industrial employers.

Workforce development is further strengthened by partnerships with area technical schools and the Oklahoma Works initiative, which helps connect employers to skilled labor and customized training. Regional industrial parks, such as those in nearby Bartlesville and Dewey, provide ready-to-build sites with essential infrastructure, making the Vera area an attractive option for companies seeking growth in northeastern Oklahoma.
