Welcome to Wrangell! A friendly frontier island community nestled in the heart of the Tongass National Forest in Southeast Alaska. Visitors to our town discover the grandeur of the Stikine River, majestic snowcapped mountains, abundant fish and wildlife, calving glaciers, and adventure of a lifetime -- the Alaska you always imagined. In addition to our unique natural beauty, Wrangell is also a community open for business. We are actively seeking diversification and economic growth. That means we are committed to providing assistance and support for new or expanding businesses. Seafood processing, tourism, and wood products manufacturing are our primary economic industries. Our Economic Development Department will work with interested businesses and owners to answer questions, identify needs and provide necessary permitting or other assistance to any expansion or start-up project. I, the City Council and the Chamber of Commerce strongly support efforts to aid businesses willing to commit to Wrangell. So, whether you are an entrepreneur looking to relocate or a visitor seeking adventure, Wrangell Alaska has what you are looking for. We look forward to seeing you soon. Sincerely, Mayor Tom Sims
