Tax incentives for 5 companies creating at least 126 jobs in Nevada

Five companies are expected to bring at least 126 jobs and $113.2 million in capital investments to Nevada over the next two years using tax incentives provided by the Governor’s Office of Economic Development.

GOED announced Thursday it awarded nearly $9 million in tax abatements to companies in the manufacturing, energy, logistics and retail industries. In return, the companies are required to create those jobs in the next two years with an average weighted hourly wage of $29.36.

Officials estimate that in five years the firms will create 435 jobs and generate about $36.7 million in net new tax revenues over the next 10 years.

“Nevada continues to attract companies who are making significant investments, creating good jobs and expanding our tax base,” GOED Executive Director Michael Brown said in a statement. “One of these companies is making $69 million in capital investments, another is generating $12 million in net tax revenues over the next decade.”

Two of the companies receiving tax incentives are located in the Reno area with one each in Clark, Nye and Storey counties.

“Since January of 2019, the 86 companies that have received abatements will create 13,227 jobs over five years,” Gov. Steve Sisolak said in a statement. “These companies are making $2.4 billion in capital investments and will generate $1.2 billion in new net tax revenues over the next decade.”

In Southern Nevada, beauty retailer Sephora is expected to expand its North Las Vegas warehouse and distribution facility, which first opened in 2019.

“Sephora’s Las Vegas Distribution Center has been critical to the accelerated growth of our U.S. business,” Mike Racer, senior vice president of supply chain at Sephora, said in a news release from the Las Vegas Global Economic Alliance. “The team’s performance in the last few years has been incredibly strong and is a clear testament to the area’s favorable operating environment and robust talent pool. We will continue to build out and invest in this facility.”
