RETAIL

Luna Grill Restaurants

We chose Mesa because it’s buzzing with energy, families, and health-conscious folks who care about what they eat. That really is the perfect combination for Luna Grill’s grilled-to-order Mediterranean bowls, plates, salads, and pitas. We are the fuel for active lifestyles.

ElectraMeccanica

Mesa offered the best proposal at the end – best land for us, best overall site, best workforce options for us. Then you couple that with the fact that the logistics of being very close to our target market, it made it really appealing . . . [There is] a tier one supply base here, there are engineering firms that are coming here already and that is really appealing to us because there is a talent base that is already starting to come here.

We are thrilled to be breaking ground on our newest data center. Mesa stood out as a great location for a number of reasons. It has great access to infrastructure, opportunities for renewable energy development, strong talent for both construction and operations, and great community partners.

Comarch

We chose Mesa due to it progressing as an up-and-coming technology region, reasonable energy prices, existing infrastructure, lack of natural disasters, and business-friendly opt-in processes which reduced timelines for go-live. The Mesa Office of Economic Development team was also a positive factor as they created a support system to make it easier to navigate an otherwise complicated endeavor for an international company.

HEALTHCARE & MEDICAL TECH

Dexcom, Inc.

During the past five years, Dexcom has gone from being chiefly unknown in Arizona to one of the largest manufacturing entities in the region, employing 1,000 people in Mesa. We have been able to successfully attract high-level talent and find the quantity of employees needed, as evidenced by our rapid production growth. We have collaborated with Arizona universities and Mesa Community College to acquire high-quality employees as well as develop internship programs to fill our pipeline. Expanding our manufacturing operations to Mesa, Arizona was a great decision.

AEROSPACE & DEFENSE

KP Aviation

When we looked across the country for KP Aviation’s new headquarters, Arizona quickly became the front runner. On top of being a major international aviation hub with pro-business regulations, the southeast valley is ranked amongst the best places to live, retire and attend public school in America. With 300 sunny days a year in Mesa, the future for KP Aviation looks bright. (VIDEO)

Embraer Executive Jet Services

Embraer Executive Jet Services (EEJS) support strategy to serve its existing and new Phenom and Legacy business jet customers included the deployment of new Embraer Owned Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul (MRO) Service Centers across North America. After a series of extensive studies performed to determine the optimum location for the construction of these EEJS MRO centers, one of the sites retained was Mesa, Arizona. Mesa offers a wonderful hub location for many of our Western United States customers. Weather is mild and predictable making pilot workload easier on flight planning. Mesa is without a doubt a winning location for one of Embraer’s Executive Jet Service Centers.

Maverick May Solutions

I've tested pretty much every version of coworking in the East Valley - free spots, paid memberships, big-name brands, the scrappy local ones. Mesa Business Builder @ The Studios is in a league of its own. This isn't just a coworking space - it's a full-on launchpad for anyone building something real. You've got quiet pods for deep work, strategy rooms for team planning, podcast and video studios (with gear!), and big spaces for events or workshops. And here's the wild part - it's free. If you're building, scaling, learning, or even just figuring out what's next in your business journey and you're not using this space, you're seriously missing out.

Revel Surf / Cannon Beach

The Studios, a remarkable facility in the heart of downtown Mesa, offers smart workspace in a very comfortable environment. With a helpful and knowledgeable team, The Studios can help you find your inspiration and organization. For Revel Surf Park, it made the perfect Job Fair location as we were able to screen, interview, and hire our entire opening team within a day or so of the Fair! The Studios are awesome! Highly recommended!

MobileCareMD, LLC

After searching for months to find an affordable and presentable office space in the valley, we learned about LaunchPoint Mesa through a random discussion with Skye while attending an event at Mesa Studios. The facility provides us with everything we need as an administrative office for our in-home wound care business at a rate well below any other options we researched.
