BACK ON TOP: North Carolina Returns to No. 1 in CNBC's 'Top States for Business' Rankings
Raleigh, N.C. – North Carolina returned to the No. 1 spot in CNBC's "Top States for Business" rankings this year. Since 2019, North Carolina has ranked in the top three states for business and was previously the top state in 2022 and 2023.
"North Carolina offers unparalleled opportunities for businesses of all sizes," Senate Leader Phil Berger (R-Rockingham) said. "Since 2011, the Republican-led General Assembly has reshaped our state's business climate by slashing our tax rates, reducing regulatory hurdles, and supporting world-class educational and job training programs. Our community colleges and UNC system schools are vital partners in preparing our citizens to fill the thousands of jobs being created here and the existing ones. We must double down on our efforts to support business growth and development from Murphy to Manteo."
