What I love about working in Lincoln County is the partnerships that I see. I don’t hear about or see in other counties where local government officials, i.e., City and County Managers along with the Economic Board come up with creative ideas to grow the county. Officials here put county growth ahead of individual accolades. They know what’s best for the county is best for them. I tell any and every one that I work in heaven because of collaborations I see when I sit at the table with all these entities. Lincoln county is a great place to live, work and play.

We targeted the North and South Carolina region for relocation. When we came to visit Lincoln County, it became obvious that this was the best location for us. The area has a great, stable work force along with easy access for shipping globally. With it’s location close to Charlotte and the very business friendly climate, we are extremely pleased that we made the decision to relocate our business here from New York. Our operating costs and quality of life have been dramatically improved and we’re so glad we made the decision to relocate to Lincoln County.

HUBER Technology, Inc.
Establishing a manufacturing facility in the United States is part of our goal to grow our manufacturing footprint in North America. Located at this 20-acre site in the Airlie Business Park here in Denver, Lincoln County will be our first facility in the North American region. With a well-established manufacturing infrastructure, as well as a growing industrial sector, Denver was identified as an ideal location for us to set up our first manufacturing facility in North Carolina. It clearly cements our commitment to supporting a robust environmental industry in North America and locally here in Lincoln County where Lincoln County Public Works has been a longtime partner.
