Texas has once again claimed the prestigious Governor's Cup, marking its 13th consecutive win and 21st overall victory in Site Selection magazine's rankings. This achievement underscores Texas' economic leadership and its ability to attract new business investments.

Agriculture Commissioner Sid Miller commended the state, stating, “This remarkable achievement reflects the dedication of Texans from all sectors. Especially our agriculture community, a driving force in our state’s economy. Our farmers and ranchers are essential in establishing Texas as the economic engine of America.”

The Governor's Cup is an annual award given by Site Selection magazine to U.S. states that excel in attracting business development and corporate investment projects. It is based on the number of qualifying capital investment projects per state, with a focus on job creation and economic impact.

Under Governor Greg Abbott's leadership, Texas has become an environment where businesses can flourish. The state has led in job creation for three years running and attracted over 300 corporate headquarters in the past decade.

Miller added, “The Texas Department of Agriculture is proud to do our part in making sure that Texas remains the best place in the nation to live, work, and do business. We’re committed to growing prosperity across the Lone Star State. Accolades like the Governor’s Cup prove that Texas is leading the way, and we’re just getting started!"
