Deane Foote presented the 2015 Economic Developer of the Year from the Site Selectors Guild to Patty Lundstrom, Executive Director of the Greater Gallup Economic Development Corporation. The award was for Patty’s role in the development of an inland port project which helped bring the Navajo Nation, the State of New Mexico, local government and private developers together in a project that will help create jobs for Navajo residents. The award was originally presented at the Site Selectors Guild Annual Conference in Puerto Rico in February.

Foote Consulting Group set to assist with the Strategic Plan for the Alamogordo, NM Area

The Otero County Economic Development Council has retained FCG to complete a new Strategic Plan for the region. The plan will include targeting, a community assessment, focus group review/training, and strategic recommendations.

FCG is excited about assisting this important military base community. These types of communities are excellent locations for select targets. One of our most successful site selection projects was the location of the ING Financial Services Center in Minot, ND near the Air Force base there. This has become one of ING’s most productive centers in part due to the high quality of workers coming from the base.
