FTZ News: For decades, America's Foreign-Trade Zone program has often been viewed primarily as a customs incentive. But the numbers tell a far more compelling story. Behind some of the nation's largest manufacturing operations, FTZs have quietly become strategic platforms that strengthen domestic production, expand exports, and reinforce America's position in global trade.
From automotive manufacturing in the Southeast to advanced pharmaceuticals in Puerto Rico and cutting-edge technology in California, today's leading Foreign-Trade Zones are proving that the program is no longer just about moving goods more efficiently. It is about making America more competitive.
The concentration of manufacturing activity within a relatively small number of FTZs also highlights an important reality: successful trade policy is increasingly tied to industrial policy. The zones generating the highest export values are those closely connected to advanced manufacturing, global supply chains, and long-term private investment.
