  Industries

Transportation is a major industry in Douglas County. Located at the head of Lake Superior, the county's outstanding network of highway, rail, air, and seaway transportation options provides convenient and cost-effective delivery of raw materials and distribution of finished products. That is one reason secondary wood products, plastics, industrial equipment and other manufacturers are prospering in Douglas County.

Higher education, health care, business services, telecommunications and retail sectors support the industrial base. Several locally owned and operated financial institutions work with the region's economic development community to encourage new and expanding businesses. The University of Wisconsin Superior and Wisconsin Indianhead Technical College provide training and research services to local employers.
