PHILADELPHIA. REMARKABLY WELL-CONNECTED.
Philadelphia offers distributors access to the largest markets in the U.S.: New Jersey and New York. An intricate web of highways, runways and ports link companies to customers, and IDI can put it all at your doorstep.
Location, indeed
IDI’s core market of New Jersey stands in the heart of the East Coast corridor, within a 24-hour drive of 100 million customers. Much of that driving is done on the New Jersey Turnpike, the fifth busiest highway in the country, connecting distributors to key markets across the Northeast. Water-wise, The Port of New York/New Jersey is the largest port complex on the Eastern Seaboard, moving nearly $190 billion in cargo in 2008. Finally, 25% of all air cargo in the U.S. is distributed between three airports serving the area—Newark International Airport, JFK International Airport and LaGuardia Airport.
Strong base for business
New Jersey and manufacturing go hand-in-hand: 15 of the world’s largest pharmaceutical companies are based here, and the state is a leading manufacturer of personal care products, industrial chemicals, paints, plastics, food products and computer and electronic products. Twenty-three Fortune 500 companies are headquartered in New Jersey, and many of the nation’s top financial services firms operate here due to proximity to New York and Wall Street. High-tech companies are attracted to New Jersey as well, bringing a job payroll of $18.4 billion and a ranking of No. 6 in the nation for high-tech employment.
