Little River County combines industrial capability, transportation access, and workforce strength to create lasting opportunity. Centered around Ashdown, it connects to Interstates 30 and 49 through U.S. Highways 71, 59, and 41 — linking directly to major markets in Texarkana, Shreveport, and De Queen.
Built on manufacturing, timber, and logistics, the county continues to attract investment through infrastructure upgrades and workforce partnerships. Expanding broadband and utility capacity make Little River a competitive location for advanced manufacturing, energy, and distribution operations.
Industrial parks in Ashdown and Foreman, along with the Highway 59 Development Corridor, provide serviced sites with utilities, highway access, and flexible space for growth. With its border location, skilled workforce, and strong partnerships, Little River County is ready for the next generation of opportunity.
