As you can see Carroll County has much to be proud of in it's
rankings with all other counties in West Tennessee. We have
captured over 13% of all new businesses and 17% of all new
employees. So, next time someone says 'why doesn't our
county ever get any new jobs' you can show them the
facts here on the Chamber Web Site.

Carroll County created more new jobs than any other county
in West TN thanks to the hard work of our Industrial Boards,
County Executive, Mayors and Chamber of Commerce.
