THE PONDERA ADVANTAGE
Pondera County is located in the heart of the Golden Triangle, an ideal
location for value-added agriculture. In addition to the rich
agriculture and wide -open spaces there is the advantage of an easy
commute to work. Even a 60 -mile commute represents only a 50-minute
drive through beautiful rural landscape that teems with deer, antelope and
pheasants. Not to mention that Montana has no sales tax. The Pondera Regional Port Authority was created (2004) to stimulate and develop
commerce, create opportunities for employment, and work towards the advancement
of general welfare and prosperity within Pondera County.
Working in cooperation with the City of Conrad, the Town of Valier, and Pondera
County, the Port Authority is available for business technical advice, business
relocation and expansion assistance, and financial assistance. |
