Our Mission

The Paterson Urban Enterprise Zone is dedicated to drive economic growth, boost tourism and encourage local residents to support homegrown establishments. We focus heavily on revitalizing our Urban Enterprise Zone corridors for the well-being of our residents and business owners.

We have implemented many initiatives to enhance the success and well-being of the City of Paterson such as: Clean Commercial Corridors, Public Safety, Solar Trash Can Receptables, Improvement of Pocket Parks, and Restaurant Week. We have a lot more planned!

Our Impact

“There’s always something that we’re doing to try to make our business better. We’re renovating buildings, utilizing UEZ programs for contractors or for purchasing, and it’s helped us quite a bit.”
Joe Belasco
Dingman’s Dairy
“Brothers Produce has been involved with UEZ for more than 20 years. UEZ helps a lot and it is important for businesses in Paterson.”
Steve Gaber
Brothers Produce
“After we opened our store, we used the UEZ for sales tax purposes. New Jersey charges 6.6% sales tax, but now we can charge half to our customers. Because of that, we get a lot more customers to shop here.”
Akkas Ali
BD Supermarket
“I’m excited to be a member of UEZ, where all our customers will benefit from a huge discount of 3.3%, not 6.6%, which is half off their taxes.”
