  • About

    St. Bernard Economic Development Foundation (SBEDF) is the official economic development organization of St. Bernard Parish formed to create and retain jobs, build prosperity, and improve quality of life. SBEDF is a public-private partnership, recognized by the IRS as a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. The Board of Directors consists of 20 appointed voting members and public officials.

    Recognized as one of the fastest-growing small counties/parishes in the United States, the time is ripe to capitalize on the incredible resources and amenities found in St. Bernard. With support from St. Bernard Parish Government, regional partners, the business community, and political leaders, SBEDF drives business attraction and retention in St. Bernard.

    We take great pride in our vital role of ensuring the health of our core industries, helping incubate emerging sectors, and providing a strong presence in the Super Region.
