Our industrial development was based on the development of the textile industry with wool production back in the 18th century. The area experienced a large industrial boom after 2nd world war and in the 1960s there were more than 400 textile factories in the Herning & Ikast-Brande area. Today we still have many fashion, design and interior companies, but production is no longer local. Other key industries include:

• metal & production
• trade, retail & logistics
• events & tradeshow
• food & agriculture

One place that you can place your company when you move to or start-up in Herning is in Innovatorium. This is an office building and an office society placed at Birk Centerpark – just opposite to Aarhus University in Herning. The building houses more than 70 different companies, and more than 300 people use it as their daily workplace. For international companies the Municipality offers a free desk for the first 6 months after registration of the company.
