We’re gathering data to support the business community — but we can’t do it without you!
Currently, Leduc County does not have an accurate picture of the business community in the Nisku Business Park or on Edmonton International Airport (EIA) lands. We've partnered with the Leduc, Nisku and Wetaskiwin Chamber of Commerce to gather this information from businesses through a free, voluntary online business registry.

HOW DOES THE REGISTRY BENEFIT BUSINESSES?
Having up-to-date data and knowing the makeup of the businesses in this area will help Leduc County make more informed decisions about economic development programming, infrastructure planning, communications, and other municipal projects and services.
These decisions translate into long-term benefits for the business community through marketing efforts, investment diversification, and promotion of the Nisku Business Park/EIA area.
