Southeast Mississippi has a wide range of industrial sites and buildings, as well as commercial office buildings that are available for occupancy. Thirteen greenfield sites have been certified as Project Ready®.
Mississippi Power understands that, in today's agile economy, increased speed to market is a key driver in a company's location decision. Before you invest, you want assurance that the properties under consideration are development ready, thoroughly vetted and risk free.
The Project Ready® Certified Sites program was established to address those issues, help facilitate your decision making process and provide a significant competitive edge. With a Project Ready® certified site, you not only save considerable time and financial resources, you also gain the added confidence that comes from an independent, third party verification of a prospective site's suitability and readiness.
