The area's excellent air, rail, and road transportation
networks reduce the cost and time of shipping a product. Geographically
well positioned, some 50 percent of the U.S. population is within a
24-hour shipping distance. The past few years have seen tremendous
growth in international trade. Imports and exports have risen to record
numbers, as international companies locate in the region and local
companies take advantage of the global market.
