Business & Industrial Parks

With three unique business park locations, Wilkes County can offer a site to meet virtually any company's requirements!

Wilkes Industrial Park is a 550-acre park located in North Wilkesboro and accessed via Highway 268, a major trucking artery. Wilkes Industrial Park has municipal water and sewer, three-phase electricity, and natural gas, all with sufficient capacity. The Park offers numerous sites in a variety of configurations to suit the needs of virtually any business. It is currently the home of Jeld-Wen Manufacturing, Minton Sales and Camco Electric and is the future home of PowerSport Grafx research, development and manufacturing facilities. The park is located less than three miles from the Wilkes County Airport.

The Wilkes County Airpark was launched in 2008 and is home to MXR Technologies, a manufacturer of composite sport, aerobatic and racing airplanes. Airside sites offer direct taxiway access to the airport, and landside sites will be available as well. Currently, the Airpark has approximately 50 acres, with capacity to expand to over 300 acres, all served by municipal water and sewer and three-phase electricity.
