Pioneer Electric has a vested interest in the economic development of its service area. Pioneer has partnered with state and local economic development agencies along with several industries and businesses to create jobs and, at the same time, increase the electric load for the cooperative.
Some of Pioneer’s partners include Rayco Industrial, Crown Health Care Laundry Services, Pallet One, Nutrien Ag Solutions, Waytech Industrial Welding, and Sunbelt Forest Ventures, LLC.
Pioneer works hand-in-hand with industrial prospects to meet their utility demands, find appropriate locations, and, in some instances, help secure financing. Pioneer was instrumental in creating industrial parks in Greenville (the Butler County Industrial Park), and in Selma (South Dallas Industrial Park), as well as in the forming of Industrial Development Authorities in Butler and Dallas Counties.
Working with the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the Rural Utilities Service, Pioneer has funded economic development revolving loan funds to help industries and businesses within the Pioneer service area develop and expand. Pioneer also supports business and economic development through active participation in economic development agencies and chambers of commerce within its service area.
