Metro Orlando’s central location in Florida positions it as a
hub with exceptionally quick, easy access to air, land, water and
space transportation routes. This distinctive geographical
advantage makes the region an ideal location for general
manufacturing, warehouse and distribution businesses.
A full range of manufacturers and warehouse/distributors are
represented in Metro Orlando, supplied by a deep, diverse talent
pool of experienced employees. Major corporations headquartered in
the region include Mitsubishi Power Systems, Inc. and HD Supply. A
proliferate number of mid-sized manufacturers and distributors
further fuel the region’s economic engine.
As businesses in this sector continually explore ways to reduce
transportation shipping costs, Orlando’s locale is increasingly
recognized as a valuable asset. Orlando International Airport is
within overnight trucking distance of many major U.S. cities, and
has scheduled non-stop service to more U.S. airports than any other
Florida airport.
Strategic partnerships between educational institutions and
business also have a positive impact on the sector. Companies
wishing to startup in, or relocate to, Metro Orlando can find a
wealth of support and assistance in practically all aspects of
their business.
