Modern Olive Branch boasts one of the most diverse economies in the nation, thanks to a wide variety of industrial and distribution employers. The industrial revolution of Olive Branch began in 1971 when a site just a couple of miles from downtown was chosen as the home of Holiday Inn University and Conference Center.
Today the Whispering Woods Hotel & Conference Center is open to the public offering magnificent meeting facilities and a 200 unit hotel.
Holiday Inns opened an industrial park and airport in January 1973. Today, the development is known as Metro Industrial Park, a fully planned, improved, and restricted industrial facility. It includes the Olive Branch Airport, with a runway length of 6000 feet, high intensity runway lighting and fully staffed air traffic control tower, which is served by 3 instrument approaches. It can accommodate the largest corporate jets down to the smallest. It is one of Mississippi's top five most active airports for landings and takeoffs.
In less than a century and a half, Olive Branch has gracefully made the transition from Indian Territory to the fastest growing city in the fastest growing county in Mississippi. Located adjacent to the Mid-South's leading metropolitan center - Memphis, Tennessee - Olive Branch offers the best of two worlds - pleasant, comfortable, uncongested living and employment all less than 30 minutes from the cultural, financial, and distribution center of the Mid-South.
