Economic Development

At Atlanta Gas Light, we believe there is more than a good way to do business; there is a right way. We've been serving Georgia — and have been a stable partner in the community — for decades, and we will continue to be for as long as people need energy for their homes and businesses.

Part of doing business the right way is being an active participant in the economic development of our service area. AGL Resources, our parent company, offers a statewide, full-service economic development program for companies seeking to relocate, build or expand in Georgia. AGL Resources experts provide leadership, knowledge and resources in helping customers choose development sites or plan expansions of their businesses. The result of this service leads to the creation of jobs and the economic growth of Georgia communities.

Partnering with the Georgia Department of Economic Development, AGL Resources and Atlanta Gas Light help Georgia communities grow. The development of jobs directly affects the growth of the state's tax base, enhancing the quality of life for all Georgians.

For more information, call our managing director for economic development, Randy Cardoza, at 404-584-3122, or e-mail him at rcardoza@aglresources.com.

AGL Resources is a proud member of Georgia Allies, a public-private partnership that provides marketing, leadership and innovation to attract, retain and grow jobs and capital investment across the state.
