Economic Development

Welcome to Northbrook

The Village of Northbrook continues to strive to create an inviting atmosphere for the 34,407 individuals that call it home while ensuring an environment for new and existing businesses to grow.

Northbrook's location between the Edens Expressway (I-94) and the Tri-State Tollway (I-294) provides industrial and commercial companies an advantage in terms of access to labor and to markets.

Through the development of the remaining vacant commercial land and redevelopment of existing industrial and commercial areas, Northbrook has positioned itself for future new and existing business growth.

Northbrook is currently home for the headquarters of internationally known companies such as Underwriters Laboratories, Inc. and Crate & Barrel as well as home for hundreds of local and regional businesses.

In addition to a significant office and industrial base, Northbrook has a large retail base anchored by the 1 + million square foot regional mall, Northbrook Court.

So whether you are a manufacturer, retailer, or office-based business, the Village of Northbrook wants to help you grow a successful business. We hope you find the Village's web site as a resource to do just that.
