Rotarian Ryan Egly, the Chief Executive Officer of the Lawrence County Chamber of Commerce, delivered a captivating presentation at the Lawrenceburg Rotary Club last Friday. During his talk, Egly delved into the Chamber’s strategic initiatives, highlighting their focus on economic development, community growth, and tourism promotion.
Egly emphasized that Lawrence County stands out as a prime location for capital investment in Southern Middle Tennessee. He pointed out that the county has experienced consistent and sustainable job growth over the past decade. With a workforce exceeding 19,000 individuals, it was noted that over 9,000 of them commute outside the county for work.
One of the key objectives outlined by the Chamber is to attract more job opportunities to the area, aiming to provide local residents with employment options closer to their homes. This initiative seeks to reduce the number of commuters and enhance the economic landscape of Lawrence County.
