MISSISSIPPI RANKED IN TOP 10 States for Doing Business

Area Development Magazine ranked Mississippi among the top five spots for its corporate tax environment and incentive programs, overall cost of doing business, and its business friendliness. The state also was #1 for labor costs and placed third (tied) for its overall labor climate.
