Minnesota has 547,493 small businesses, 99.5 percent of its firms, and they employ 45.4 percent of workers, according to the SBA Office of Advocacy. Professional, scientific and technical services leads at 76,874 businesses, followed by transportation and warehousing at 63,318, most of them owner operators with no employees.

Eight counties hold 66.4 percent of jobs: Hennepin at 899,500 and Ramsey at 321,500 in the Twin Cities, plus Olmsted, St. Louis and Stearns, which are separate regional centers around Rochester, Duluth and St. Cloud. Explore Minnesota reports visitors spent a record $14.7 billion in 2024, supporting 182,435 jobs. Customers in each regional center search for local providers by town, not by state.
