In addition to offering a prestigious business address, Coral Gables makes good business sense. That’s why we are home to a long list of national and multinational companies.

Coral Gables offers prime office space, a rich multilingual employment base, outstanding telecommunications systems and convenient transportation links, especially to Miami International Airport.

Since the Coral Gables Trolley system was inaugurated in 2003, people who work in downtown Coral Gables have been able to take Metrorail and connect with the free trolley service at the Douglas Metrorail Station. For route information, click here.

For business assistance, including worthwhile small business seminars, and other information, contact the Development Department at 305/460-5311 or see the Development Department page under City Departments.

 

Here are some important reasons why it makes sense to relocate your business to Coral Gables:

·        5.5 million square feet of office space available; 4.5 million square feet in downtown Coral Gables alone with offerings ranging from

         affordable Class B to Class A.

·        White-collar employee base of 40,000 people, with median per capita incomes in excess of $60,000; total worker population within 

         three miles of downtown Coral Gables exceeds 100,000.

·        Beautiful residential areas offering a wide variety of housing choices including rental units, condominiums, and single-family homes

         in a thriving real estate market.

·        Strong emphasis on quality of life: Tree City USA for 22 consecutive years, comprehensive recreational facilities and

         top-rated municipal services.

·        More than 1,400 hotel rooms, 50 percent of which have luxury or first-class status.

·        Just 4 miles from Miami International Airport.

·        Home to over 30 consulates and trade offices.

·        Over 30 banking institutions have offices in Coral Gables.

·        Ninth lowest combined property tax rates in Miami-Dade County (out of 35 cities).

·        No State Income Tax.



It is a city known for its preservation of the history and lifestyles of old Florida, yet it also offers cutting-edge innovations in technology, such as providing wireless connectivity in the downtown area and being the first municipality to connect to the Network Access Point (NAP) of The Americas.

The city also enjoys a globally-recognized reputation as a "Center of Commerce" to over 175 multinational companies and is the regional headquarters to US, European, Latin American and Far East-based corporations.  With over 40,000 executives and corporate employees coming to work in the city each day, Coral Gables is widely recognized throughout the world as the preferred meeting point of the hemisphere and has evolved into the natural Capital of the Americas and Gateway to the Caribbean.

For decades, executives of multinational companies have enjoyed the unequalled quality of life and working environment that has made Coral Gables a preferred address for global business. The city’s strategic location, with its multicultural and multilingual employee base and an outstanding community and family-oriented environment, all make Coral Gables an attractive choice for living and working. It is a city where preservation and innovation share equal importance. With worldwide leaders in communications, IT, transportation, banking, international trade, manufacturing, distribution and technology based here, Coral Gables businesses have unparalleled opportunities to interact with some of the most experienced and brightest executives of world commerce anywhere.
