Miami County Economic Development Group Warehousing/Logistics

Miami County, strategically placed in North Central Indiana, is within one day's driving distance to 65 percent of the U. S. population. Two U. S. highways, 24 (east/west) and 31 (north/south) , run through and intersect in the county aiding in business travel. Our community is within 65 miles of Interstate 65, 465, 70, 74, 69 and 80/90.

With the current upgrades being made to US 24 & US 31 slated to be completed in 2013, accessibility to markets will be even further streamlined.
