Welcome to Hanover Township in the heart of prosperous Morris County
The Hanover Township Committee and the Economic Development Advisory Committee welcome you and thank you for this opportunity to share the many benefits of working, learning, living and playing in the Township of Hanover.
Hanover, a well-managed, debt-free suburban community is located minutes from Manhattan at the “crossroads” of Morris County, home to many intersecting major highways, convenient passenger and freight rail service and New Jerseys second largest airport, MMU (Morristown Municipal Airport).
This “green” community boasts one of the lowest tax rates in the county, ranked 4th out of 39 municipalities, allowing your business to compete at a world-class level in one of the world’s largest markets.
To enhance your business environment, Hanover is home to six major brand hotels offering fine services and a large inventory and variety of rooms. Future developments in the township will soon bring the U.S. headquarters of a global pharmaceutical concern, a national home improvement retailer and one of the nation’s premier supermarkets to Hanover. They will join such neighbors as Kraft Foods, Tiffany & Company, Suburban Propane, Dendreon Labs and CAE.
Hanover is ready and eager to help you locate your business within our community, with its “Blue Ribbon” schools”, a municipal library complete with up-to-date electronic media and programs for all ages, an expansive recreation department maintaining five parks that host a wide range of sports activities for all age groups, a thriving housing market and a strong, highly-educated professional labor force.
Let our Economic Development Advisory Committee guide you to the right site for your company and help you navigate through the approval processes in the most efficient and timely manner. Hanover is open for business - your business.
Join us here in business friendly Hanover,

Ron Francioli
Mayor
