Logistics
By Sue Scott
Project Director, Logistics
Logistics companies considering Indianapolis as a home base just got another big reason to choose our city—or rather, 10 big reasons!
If a company locates on one of the eight sites at the 205-acre World Connect at AmeriPlex that company will receive a 10-year real property tax abatement from the city.
The incentive is one that city officials are banking on to draw in global logistical leaders. That draw is further enhanced by proximity to the new Indianapolis International Airport, which was recently recognized for its air cargo excellence, having handled one million+ tons in 2009 alone. And I-70. And the world’s second largest FedEx hub. And the opportunity to build a modern, LEED-certified facility that is specifically designed to fit the operations of your business.
While Indy already boasts strong logistics hubs – such as Park 100 and Park Fletcher – World Connect is particularly attractive for companies that would like to construct their own facility.
As Develop Indy’s project director for logistics, I’m excited to see what will transpire at World Connect over the next few years. We will literally be connected to the world in every way.
