🏆 Investing in Cibolo Businesses!

The Cibolo Economic Development Corporation (EDC) was proud to present a $50,000 EDGE Grant to River City Ace, located in the Buffalo Crossings Shopping Center! 🎉

The grant, awarded by the Cibolo EDC Board and approved for funding by the City of Ciboloi City Council, supports the Eklund family and River City Ace as they invest in their business and the Cibolo community.

This was also a great example of what can happen when our local organizations work together. The Chamber's advocacy efforts helped bring this grant over the finish line, working alongside the EDC, City Council and River City Ace to support this local investment.

For Fiscal Year 2026, which ends September 30, the Cibolo EDC Board has awarded more than $200,000 in grants in support of local businesses throughout Cibolo. 💰

We are proud to partner with our local businesses and community organizations like The Chamber to encourage investment, support existing businesses and strengthen Cibolo’s local economy.

Congratulations to the Eklund family and River City Ace! 👏

🚗 Did you know?

Every Toyota Tundra, Tacoma, and Sequoia manufactured at TOYOTA's San Antonio plant contains components made by AISIN Texas Corporation right here in City of Cibolo

It's another great example of how Cibolo plays a key role in the North American automotive supply chain.

At the September 8 City Council meeting, the City of Cibolo recognized AISIN Texas Corporation for its significant investment, job creation, advanced manufacturing operations, and continued partnership with our community.

Since selecting Cibolo for its first Texas manufacturing facility in 2019, AISIN has invested approximately $400 million in our community, created hundreds of quality jobs, and strengthened Cibolo’s role in the South Central Texas automotive manufacturing industry.

As part of the recognition, AISIN Texas also provided the City with a RWD Hybrid Transmission, for display at Cibolo City Hall. Manufactured right here in Cibolo, the transmission showcases the innovation, advanced technology, and skilled workforce behind AISIN Texas’ local operations.

Thank you to President Kawatsu; Priscilla Sands, Vice President of AISIN Texas; and Jessica Moore, GM of Corporate Management, for joining us last night and accepting this recognition.

To AISIN Texas and its employees, a heartfelt thank you for investing in Cibolo and for continuing to be an important community and economic development partner. We look forward to many more years of partnership and shared success! 👏

We can’t wait to beat the Texas heat with a cold beverage perhaps one of Gringo’s signature frozen margaritas and enjoy plenty of Tex-Mex favorites, including their well loved queso, tacos, fajitas, and more. 🌮🧀🍹

🤝 Economic development is a team effort that succeeds through regional collaboration and strong partnerships.

The City of Cibolo was proud to participate in the San Antonio Manufacturers Association SAMA August Special Edition Luncheon, where our Assistant Director of Economic Development, Clancy Hardin, served as a panelist alongside regional partners from Seguin and New Braunfels during the "State of Manufacturing""discussion.

The conversation focused on the opportunities and challenges facing manufacturers across Central Texas and the important role communities play in supporting business growth, workforce development, and long-term economic success.

Representing Cibolo at the event were Kara Latimer Cibolo Mayor, City Manager Wayne Reed, members of the Cibolo Economic Development Corporation Board of Directors: Justin Triesch, Charity Rodriguez, and Terry Hinze along with Luke Killion, Economic Development Specialist.

Events like these demonstrate that economic development doesn't happen in one department it takes collaboration across City Council, the Mayor, the Cibolo Economic Development Corporation Board, City Administration, Planning, Economic Development, and our regional partners to create opportunities for businesses, residents, and the entire community.

Thank you to the San Antonio Manufacturers Association SAMA for bringing together industry leaders, economic developers, and local officials for an engaging discussion on the future of manufacturing in our region.
