The Municipality of Przykona is a picturesque and extremely attractive part of the Wielkopolskie Province located in the south-east of the region along the Łódź - Przykona - Turek route and on the River Teleszyna in the Turek County. Local authorities make it one of their priorities to provide the best conditions for investors and this is reflected by the fact that Przykona holds the title of the Fair Play Municipality - Certified Investment Location and has implemented ISO 9001:2000. The high standard of Municipal operations is also reflected in numerous awards of regional and national significance, to mention the Patron of Polish Ecology, the Environment-Friendly Municipality, the Promoter of Ecology, the Best Rural Municipality and the Local Governments Golden 100 in 2005.

The main assets of the Municipality of Przykona, which contribute to its development, are the excellent location of investment sites along no. 72 (Poznań- Konin-Turek-Uniejów-Łódź) national road, which is a major transport route for the consumer goods market. The nearest exit from the A2 motorway is only 23kilometres away in Kościelec. The sites on offer are included in the guidelines of the Strategy for the Development of the Municipality and designated in the Spatial Development Plan as economic activation areas. They total 55ha, and approximately 50% of the area is the property of the Municipality. In addition, all the sites are fully provided with technical infrastructure.
To meet investors' needs, local authorities have introduced a system of real estate tax deductions for companies who are launching their operations in the area for the first time. These deductions can be extended to subsequent periods and additional deductions are offered for every new job created.
The Przykona Reservoir is an interesting local attraction. Built in 2004 and located in the central part of the Municipality, it is a major contribution to the development of tourism and recreation in the region. The surrounding recreation areas include sites which are meant to be developed into a scouting campsite, piers, car parks, beaches, water sport equipment hire and small catering facilities. The housing developments comprise summerhouses built on approximately 400 plots. The Reservoir is surrounded by beautiful forests, which provide walking and recreation areas to both residents and tourists. The forest complex covers an area of 2,881 hectares, which forms 26% of the whole Municipal territory. An extensive mosaic of ecosystems enhances the natural assets and the landscape making up for the unvaried land formations.
In the proximity of Przykona Reservoir, there are approximately 30 hectares of attractive sites, which are designated in the Spatial Development Plan for summerhouses and services related to recreation and tourism.
Technical infrastructure of the Municipality is of a very high standard. The total length of asphalt roads is 113.4 kilometres. An important item among local investments is water supply and wastewater management. 100% of the Municipality has access to a 119-kilometre-long water supply system, which is in good condition. Four water plants operate within the system, whereas the wastewater disposal and treatment system comprises five treatment plants with a total capacity of 323 m3/day and 65.6 kilometres of wastewater systems with house drains. 65% of the population of the Municipality are connected to collective wastewater systems.
