In April, the Village of Hoffman
Estates encourages everyone to
join them as they host the
Heartland International
Tattoo, the only musical
Tattoo of its
kind in the
Midwest. What
is a Tattoo? The
Tattoo, a signal
sounded on a drum
or bugle, was used
to summon soldiers
or sailors to their
quarters at night.
That began the
tradition of
today’s Tattoo,
which is a
celebration
of international
music and
dance honoring cultures from
around the world. The Tattoo
will dazzle spectators with
more than 250 musicians, singers and entertainers that include both military and civilian
brass bands, drum corps, wind bands, bagpipe bands, drill teams, flag corps and an
array of dancers. The Tattoo will kick off
with a parade celebrating “Tartan Day,”
which is a rich brocade comprised of a
thread from every nation represented in the
vast cultural diversity of Hoffman Estates.
For more information and to view a listing

Economic
Development
As a visitor to Hoffman Estates, you may not know much about our community
and its economic vitality. The Village is home to an international array of
corporate giants. Sears Holdings Corporation has its International Merchandising
Headquarters here. Siemens Medical Solutions has their nuclear medicine training
center and their medical product manufacturing and export division. AT&T has
their Midwest Headquarters and Training Institute, and GE Capital Services, ADP
and Career Education have significant presences. The Swiss company, Givaudan, and
the German company, Bosch-Rexroth, have Hoffman Estates operations in the
world-class Prairie Stone Business Park that consists of 780 acres, and accommodates
over 10,000 workers. There is a strong Japanese presence with FANUC America,
which has its North American headquarters here, and two new companies building
North American headquarters in 2009 – Mori Seiki and Big Kaiser.
Covering more than 20 acres, the rapidly-expanding Alexian Brothers Healthcare
Campus in Hoffman Estates handles more than 80,000 patients annually through
its inpatient and outpatient facilities – the St. Alexius Medical Center, the Alexian
Brothers Behavioral Health Hospital and three medical office buildings, all served
by 2,000 employees and 1,100 doctors.
Why did these companies locate here? It is due to a skilled and available workforce,
major highway and interstate access, great schools, and a unique quality of life for
workers with miles of open forest preserves, parks, restaurants and entertainment
venues. Add to that a diligent Village staff of seasoned experts in Development Services
that make it easy for you to build or do business in Hoffman Estates, and you will
see why this community has become the first choice location for business growth.
There is land available for new construction and locations that are move-in ready.
Bring your retail or commercial business into a dynamic community that takes
your business as seriously as you do.
