Logistics Plus Inc. has established a new foreign trade zone (FTZ) in the state of Pennsylvania in the United States. FTZs, or international free-trade zones, are designed to encourage global trade in the hopes that economic development will follow.
The new, general-purpose import/export FTZ warehousing and distribution facility is located at Erie International Airport (ERI)/Tom Ridge Field, and was accomplished in close cooperation with ERI and the Erie-Western Pennsylvania Port Authority. Under a contractual agreement with ERI, Logistics Plus filed and secured activated status for the site from Customs and Border Protection and will operate the FTZ warehousing and distribution facilities on the airport property.
