Shawnee has so much to offer to so many different industries and businesses we decided to give you a quick overview. National chains, independently owned business, and manufacturing industries know we are the best kept secret in the region. Low taxes, low cost of living, and a hard working class of people who love where they live and work make it easy to start or expand your business here. Our trade pull factor proves we are a retail destination pulling from more than 400,000 residents in a 30 mile radius. Our close proximity to Tinker Air Force Base strengthens our retail and housing sectors because people want small town living with big city amenities.

The Shawnee Forward organization is in place to lead the Shawnee area and surrounding region, in both community and economic development efforts. Shawnee Forward brings together the resources, commitment, and energy of both the chamber and economic development organizations, and will be the lead marketing and business attraction/retention entity for the community. In addition to business attraction and retention, Shawnee Forward will work to build a stronger entrepreneurial and innovation ecosystem, to also support private employers in identifying, recruiting and developing talent, and act as a unified, collaborative voice to all of the businesses that calls this community home.
