S
t Joseph began its history as a trading post in
1843 and has continued to grow as a commercial
center ever since.
Historically, the city is the home of the famous Pony
Express and of western legends like Jesse James – but
today, gains its national recognition and awards as a
center of research and technology in the Midwest.
The bustling westward expansion of the mid 19th
century has been succeeded by multi-million dollar
business complexes, major interstate highways and
airports, keeping transportation and commerce the pulse
of the city’s life.

“When moving to the area, we
chose St. Joseph because the city
has a great blend of the character
of a city with roots and all the
convenient amenities we need as a
family.
With the travel for work, it is nice to
have the airport nearby, but not too
close. We love it here!”
- John P. Bosman, State Sales
Director, American Family Insurance
The spirit of westward expansion that inspired an
entrepreneurial attitude in the early 19th century is still
evident today. Known for its pivotal role in the KC Animal
Health Corridor, St. Joseph and the surrounding area is
buzzing with research, development and production in
industries relating to animal health and nutrition.

As Nor-Am started our expansion, there
were many conversations with St. Joseph’s
Economic Development team. We
appreciated Brad and Patt’s advice
and counsel, making us aware of what
incentive programs applied to Nor-Am.
While we are experts in warehousing, we
are not experts in economic development,
so the Chamber’s team is a real asset
for companies expanding their existing
business or new companies looking at
St Joseph.
Since coming to St. Joseph six years ago,
we have seen our business grow and
will continue to make investments in the
community.
