Duncan Area Economic Development Foundation

06/17/2026

What an honor. Duncan Area Economic Development Foundation was presented our Accredited Economic Development Organization (AEDO) plaque by Lt. Governor Matt Pinnell, Oklahoma Department of Commerce CEO John Budd, and Senator Spencer Kern. A moment that truly reflects the strength of the partnerships that help Duncan and Stephens County.

To be recognized at this level, in the company of Oklahoma’s top economic development leaders, means everything to our team and to this community. AEDO accreditation places DAEDF among just 93 organizations in the world that meet the highest standards in the profession.

Thank you to Lt. Gov. Pinnell, Director Budd, and Senator Kern for taking the time to celebrate with us. And thank you to the Duncan community - this recognition belongs to you.
