Welcome

Resource based industries are an integral part of our nation's economy and are the primary economic engine in many rural communities. Keeping these industries viable is key to rural economic health. ACDS works with industry, communities, and economic development agencies to create innovative support and development programs for resource based industry sectors such as agriculture, forestry, seafood, and mining. We approach all of our projects from the perspective that long-term economic prosperity contributes to the sustainability of communities and regeneration of business opportunity.

Our primary tools are drawn from the fields of:

• Economic development
• Finance
• Strategic planning
• Land use management
• Marketing
• Public relations
