About Monroe County Industrial Development
Monroe County Industrial Development Corporation primarily funds local economic development by subsidizing small- and mid-sized manufacturers, construction firms, and service contractors in the Rochester/Monroe County area. Grants are operationally focused (e.g., interest-rate subsidies, rebates, and job-training vouchers) intended to retain and grow local employers and preserve jobs rather than support charities or programmatic nonprofits. The portfolio is highly local and business-facing, with repeated, modest awards to the same commercial beneficiaries and occasional targeted workforce grants.

About Monroe County Industrial Development
Monroe County Industrial Development Corporation funds local employers through operational subsidies rather than traditional charitable grants. Its recent awards center on Great Rate, Great Rebate, and Monroe On The Job programs that support manufacturers, construction firms, and service contractors in the Rochester and Monroe County labor market. The same business recipients often appear more than once, showing a pattern of repeat support tied to retained jobs, wage incentives, or capital-cost relief. Among the larger awards, Xli Manufacturing LLC received $37,843 in 2023 for Great Rate / Great Rebate, while Villager Construction Inc received $28,245 in 2024 for the same program combination. Other sizable grants went to Jam Industries Inc for Great Rate / Monroe On The Job and to Plug Power for Great Rebate. The portfolio also includes machine shops, fabrication firms, building services companies, and industrial contractors, such as Elite Turning & Machining Corp, Turner Underground Installations Inc, and Catprintcom LLC. The foundation’s work is business-facing and performance-oriented. Grants are used to lower borrowing costs, offset operating expenses, or reward workforce activity, with a clear emphasis on keeping local employers in Monroe County active and staffed.
