Regional Profiles
Welcome to Rural Manitoba Economic Development Corporation (RMED)’s comprehensive Economic Profiles page, your go-to source for in-depth insights into the economic landscapes of Manitoba’s diverse regions. Originally overseen by Manitoba Economic Development, Investment, Trade and Natural Resources, the responsibility for these reports has now transitioned to the capable team at RMED.
RMED is committed to continuing the tradition of providing invaluable tools for shaping strategic economic development initiatives and assessing the attractiveness of specific areas for investment opportunities.
Covering Manitoba’s ten economic regions, these reports will provide a wealth of data and analysis encompassing demographics, employment statistics, and business trends. Whether you are a policymaker, investor, or simply curious about Manitoba’s economic prospects, the reports offer a foundational understanding of Manitoba’s economic strength.
