Below is a list of resources the City of Concord has implemented to help sustain and support local business. The City remains optimistic and is committed to working with its business partners and community members now and after the COVID-19 crisis to restore our local economy.

Concord’s Essential Business List
Essential businesses include auto shops, grocery stores, healthcare clinics, hardware stores and dry cleaners, as well as local restaurants open for take-out or delivery. The Economic Development Division is providing a searchable database for such businesses to encourage local and regional residents to support them.
Businesses that are open, considered essential and not currently on the list are encouraged to submit their company information directly through the portal itself and Concord Economic Development staff will review the information as soon as possible.
