Oregon’s ability to consistently attract new residents is one of the key reasons our labor force continues to expand year after year. The population growth in the Bend-Redmond MSA, alone, has far outpaced any other Oregon metro for the last eight years.”

It has allowed us to hire amazing employees – the available talent here in Central Oregon has proven to be of the highest caliber and chocked full of integrity. Sometimes you feel like you can get lost in a big city. In Sisters we have been able to be part of a growing and nurturing business community.”
Wyatt Woods, President and Owner, Holy Kakow
in Portland in 2009, Holy Kakow creates premium organic chocolate sauces and syrups that are used in coffee shops across the nation and globe. After running the business for nearly a decade, founder Wyatt Woods decided a move to Sisters, Oregon would be beneficial for his family. The next step was to figure out how to move the successful business. After EDCO’s help with site selection, incentives, permitting, and more, Holy Kakow was able to move their operations into a new building in the Sisters Business Park. The relocation allowed them to scale for growth, even during the pandemic, expanding their employment from three to eight in the span of a couple months. Holy Kakow have their sights set on new product launches, and with the backing of the community and the growing number of craft food businesses in Sisters, they’re surrounded by a strong business ecosystem to help them succeed.

“Central Oregon has an incredible entrepreneurial ecosystem, filled with self-starters and trailblazers. These companies are creating new opportunities with the help of multiple influential organizations. EDCO and the newly-formed food and beverage industry association, Cultivate Bend, support and guide the many product companies that call this region home.” -Paul Evers, CEO, Riff Cold Brewed
Riff Cold Brewed was born from a mission to produce the world’s most delicious cold brewed coffee. Serial entrepreneur Paul Evers (also behind Bend staple Crux Fermentation Project), along with a crew of other Central Oregonians, started Riff in late 2017. They opened a bottling and production facility in Redmond, along with the first-of-its-kind Cold Brew Taproom in Bend.
Riff is a great example of how economic development programs are poised to help companies grow. From the beginning, they worked with Redmond Economic Development (REDI) to utilize different tax in centive programs, while connecting with other community resources to help the company position itself to grow more efficiently. In October 2019, Riff presented and won funding at the Bend Venture Confer ence (BVC), the largest angel conference in the West.
With innovation at its core, Riff has taken the craft brewing expertise to create the next great variation in energy drinks. The funding they received from BVC allowed them to further develop their latest product, Alter Ego, a natural plant-based energy drink brewed from coffee’s little-known fruity pulp, cascara, a traditionally wasted biproduct of coffee.

“From our initial startup days through our expansion today, it is refreshing to work with organizations like EDCO, the Redmond Chamber and the City of Redmond. These groups have worked side by side with our team to get us where we are today and have been an asset to our growing business. They are prime examples of organizations focused on supporting sustainable business growth and helping develop a stronger community for years to come!”
-Matt Tobolski, President and Founder, BASX Solutions
BASX Solutions is an industry leader in the design and manufacturing of high-efficiency data center cooling solu tions, cleanroom systems, custom HVAC solutions, and more. Headquartered in Redmond since 2014, BASX has customers across the U.S. and around the globe. They recently broke ground on a new 75,000 square foot building expansion, allowing the company to consolidate its operations while substantially increasing their manufacturing capacity.
The expansion will give BASX approximately 200,000 square feet of manufacturing space while bringing additional jobs to what is already one of the city’s largest employers, nearly doubling their employee count once their facili ties are operational and fully staffed.
Part of what drew BASX to Central Oregon in 2012 was the fact that Redmond stood out as a city that values and supports business and manufacturing operations. It became clear quickly that the City, Redmond Economic Devel opment, Inc., the Redmond Chamber, and other organizations work together collectively to support job growth. The ability for these entities to work together seamlessly lured BASX to the region and has spurred their expansion, allowing them to continue focusing on delivering their products to critical industries.
We partner with local traded-sector companies to help them grow and expand, offering them the very same incentives and assistance as relocation projects.
Now in its fourth year, Youth CareerConnect (YCC) continues to connect employers and students with real work experience throughout Central Oregon. By supporting internships and experiential learning opportunities in the community, YCC has made it simpler for schools and employers to connect while fostering a work-ready labor force for years to come.
YCC is equipped to support virtual internships with local companies
that remote learning and remote work are the new norm. High School, college and alternative education students can access virtual training and support, including resume building, interview preparation, guidance for professional work ethics, and more. Since its inception, YCC has built a rolodex of over 240 business partners and placed more than 290 students in meaningful internships. Personalization for both the business and the student is at the core of what YCC does, and why it continues to thrive. To get involved with Youth CareerConnect, visit: youthcareerconnect.org
