Foreign Trade Zone in Salt Lake City |
|
Salt Lake City is scheduled to be home to a new Foreign Trade Zone located on 57 acres at 1105 South 4800 West, near the Union Pacific intermodal facility and I-80. The zone will be developed by The Rockefeller Group, headquartered in New York City. The new industrial park will have more than 1 million square feet of industrial and manufacturing space. Salt Lake has had an FTZ since 1977, but no real development occurred there and the old site was recently sold as part of the airport's expansion. Source: UtahPulse.com |
