Houston is a major center of industry, with connections to international markets. Houston’s manufacturing sector employs a highly qualified workforce of over 230,000 industrial personnel specializing in fields like fabricated metal, machinery and chemical production. The region is also home to a range of developing and expanding sectors, such as medical devices, therapeutics, and the food and beverage industry. Through access to two international airports, four deep water seaports, and rail and highway systems, companies can reduce their costs substantially for local and global transportation and distribution. Houston boasts a variety of transport routes – including land, air and sea – which facilitate the distribution and transportation of products both locally and internationally. Due to Houston’s proximity to the east and west coasts, as well as its short flight time from any major city in America, it is an optimal location for companies that require national distribution of their products. Houston is a capital of global trade due to its status as the number one foreign trading port in the U.S. by tonnage and the largest container port on the Gulf Coast.
