KC SmartPort Details
KC SmartPort is a non-profit economic development organization that works to attract freight-based companies, such as manufacturing, distribution and warehouses, to the 18 county, bi-state Kansas City region. Kansas City has several key components that make it an excellent hub for all transportation and logistics operations:• The largest rail center in the United States by tonnage. • A business friendly Foreign Trade Zone program that can activate space in under 45 days.• Located at the intersection of four of the nation's major interstate highways (I-35, I-70, I-29, I-49). • The Kansas City International Airport, which moves more air cargo each year than any air center in a six-state region.• Located on the largest navigable inland waterway (MO/MS River system). • The heart of a rail corridor spanning coast-to-coast across the U.S. and extending from Canada to Mexico (NAFTA Railway).
