LOCAL INSIGHT
Aberdeen businesses sell to a trade area wider than the city
Aberdeen's own economic development site describes the city as the center of a large regional trade area, and as a headquarters and launching point for regional and national businesses. Brown County had an estimated 38,738 residents in 2020, yet the customers a local shop or service company wants reach well past the county. Online, that means a business should speak to the whole trade area and not only the city limits.
The city lists renewable energy, value added agriculture, healthcare, financial services, construction and manufacturing among the industries with successful companies. Its labor market page says the county supplies more than 21,000 workers and that unemployment has typically run under 4 percent. In October 2024 the Aberdeen Development Corporation announced Smacked Pet Foods for the west industrial park, a Tropical Smoothie Cafe and a Harris Machine expansion. Downtown, the Aberdeen Downtown Association oversees a Business Improvement District. New and established firms compete for the same search results, so being easy to find matters.
A manufacturer near the west industrial park needs a clear website that explains what it makes and how buyers reach it. A downtown retailer or a clinic needs its Google Maps and local listings set up correctly. Rankwyre builds and runs both for Aberdeen businesses, remotely.
