Business Resources
Business Incentives: A variety of tax credits, State funded incentives, as well as low-interest gap financing and Lease-to-Purchase opportunities make Langlade County appealing to anyone looking to relocate, expand or start-up a business.
Included in local level business incentives is access to capital through three Economic Development Revolving Loan Funds designed for gap financing; The City of Antigo also has a very progressive Lease to Purchase program, a Façade Improvement Grant Program for downtown businesses, as well as a very “out-of-the-box” way of thinking when it comes to incentives.
On a regional level, through our partners at the North Central Regional Planning Commission, there are various low-interest options also available.
