vitality of the eight-county region. The counties that
make up the Smart Market are Adams, Cumberland, Dauphin,
Franklin, Lancaster, Lebanon, Perry and York.
The new name and logo express the opportunities

its diverse industry, talent, knowledge-based workforce,
top-ranked educational institutions, rich heritage,
innovative spirit, proximity as a gateway to some
of the nation’s largest cities, and the abundant

utilities, services, recreation and culture,” says
SCTPA Board Chairman Robert McNary. “By branding
our region, we are conforming to the way companies
think about local economics.”
