Entergy Arkansas certifies two Stuttgart industrial sites for economic development

STUTTGART, Ark. — Officials announced that two sites in the Stuttgart Industrial Park have received Select Site certification from Entergy Arkansas.

The Select Site initiative is a development program by Entergy Arkansas that helps communities prepare shovel-ready sites to attract industrial and commercial projects.

A spokesperson announced that both selected sites are located in the Stuttgart Industrial Park along U.S. Highway 79. One site is 154-acre and the other is 62-acre.

Bethany Hildebrand, president and CEO of the Stuttgart Chamber of Commerce, said the recognition follows two years of infrastructure improvements supported by federal and state grants.

A grant was provided by Entergy Arkansas to help offset some of the costs associated with the certifications, officials said.

“Certifying a site is not an easy or quick task and certifying two at the same time is an even bigger challenge,” said Entergy Arkansas Vice President of Business and Economic Development Danny Games. “Accomplishing these certifications ensures that Stuttgart has timely information on hand to satisfy site location consultants and prospective company inquiries. We are pleased to recognize Stuttgart for achieving this milestone and look forward to featuring the Stuttgart Industrial Park Select Sites on our website and promoting them as our newest certified sites.”
