Offcanvas Section

You can publish whatever you want in the Offcanvas Section. It can be any module or particle.

By default, the available module positions are offcanvas-a and offcanvas-b but you can add as many module positions as you want from the Layout Manager.

You can also add the hidden-phone module class suffix to your modules so they do not appear in the Offcanvas Section when the site is loaded on a mobile device.

Business Development

The Northampton County Economic Development Commission is responsible for initiating, organizing and managing the County's public sector efforts to strengthen the local economy, improve the standard of living and create sustainable, higher-wage employment opportunities for the people of Northampton County.

Reaching these objectives requires that we provide strategically capable services and value-added resources in supporting new business development and the expansion of existing businesses.

Success in economic development requires the collaboration of many diverse groups and individuals, and we in Northampton County continue to benefit from strong alliances with economic development partners in the public and private sectors at the local, regional, state and national levels. We invite you to join our team, and to please let us know if we can assist your business development interests in any way.
