According
to some site selectors, the choice of a site in a "smaller community" imposes
inevitable sacrifices, particularly in transportation and market access.
Try telling that to Navistar International, Cooper Industries, Rittal, or
Gordon Food Service. All four of those companies demand exceptional transportation
systems; all four serve markets that extend throughout North America and
the world; and all four are among the top-15 employers of Springfield, Ohio.
Located between Dayton and Columbus along interstate 70, AirPark Ohio is located within 600 miles of 69 percent of the U.S. population and 74 percent of wholesale sales nationwide. AirPark Ohio is a 191-acre industrial park, located on U.S. 68, four miles south of I-70 and within minutes of the intersection of intestates 70 & 75, known as the crossroads of America. The ability to efficiently move raw materials and products just doesn't get much better than this. Or does it? To say that AirPark Ohio is an industrial park is a serious understatement. AirPark Ohio is an industrial park, but is also home to the Springfield Beckley Municipal Airport, a general aviation airport with a 9,000 foot primary runway, two intersecting runways, a modern terminal, corporate and private t-hanger space, an avionics repair service, and an Instrument Landing System that delivers all weather landing capabilities. Most importantly, the airport has the capacity to land any general aviation aircraft. Springfield Beckley is also the closest general aviation facility to Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, which is home to the Air Force Material Command headquarters. |
