Paris Economic Development Corp.

Our Executive Director Maureen Hammond had a great time at the TEDC Mid-Year conference, connecting with economic development leaders across the state and visiting with our regional ED rep. from Governor Abbott’s office. Staying ahead of industry trends and building strong relationships - that’s how we keep Paris and Lamar County reaching higher!

Exciting conversations taking place about the future of our region. PEDC Executive Director Maureen Hammond and Board Chairman Josh Andrew Bray recently met with representatives from the Choctaw Nation Headquarters to explore opportunities for Paris and the surrounding region. We are grateful to Marion Hammill for organizing and joining us for this meaningful connection. At the PEDC we believe the strongest economic futures are built on strong relationships. And, we are just getting started.
