Foreign Trade Zone INzone – The Greater Indianapolis Foreign Trade Zone INzone is the not-for-profit administrator of the federal Foreign Trade Zone program in 41 counties in Central Indiana. It is an incentives program available to any business in the area and is designed to enhance foreign trade through savings and improved efficiency.

Foreign Trade Zone Advantages Foreign Trade Zones are specific physical areas that have been granted special status by the Federal Government, allowing companies to import, manipulate, and/or manufacture goods while delaying, reducing or eliminating customs duties, among other benefits. Foreign trade zones can be established on-site at any company that wishes to participate in the program and receive these benefits. Some Central Indiana companies that have previously established foreign trade zones include Eli Lilly & Company, Ingram Micro, RollsRoyce, Endress+Hauser, and many others. In addition to being the administrator for all of Central Indiana, INzone also operates its own foreign trade zone at the Indianapolis International Airport (FTZ #72). This additional service helps businesses access program benefits if they are unable to operate their own foreign trade zone. Services offered on-site include: climate controlled warehouse, third-party logistics, repackaging/ relabeling, CBP-compliant inventory control software, transportation coordination, quality control services and import/export services. Because all Central Indiana counties are part of the new alternative site framework and have been predesignated as foreign trade zones, any interested company is able to establish an on-site foreign trade zone much more quickly and efficiently within these counties than in other areas of the country that are not part of the framework.

Therefore, the data are likely to under-represent the total available application pool in the labor shed. Note: Data are reported by target occupation. Some applicants have indicated more than one target occupation. This means that some occupations that require similar skills may be subject to “double counting” of applicants when added together.

“Indianapolis is the best of both worlds – all the sophistication of a modern metropolis, while retaining its hometown Hoosier demeanor.” - Home and Away magazine With the nation’s 12th largest city at its center and no shortage of thriving towns and small communities throughout the nine counties, the Indianapolis Region draws attention for being vibrant and progressive as well as culturally rich and hospitable. Greenways Indianapolis Cultural Trail The Indianapolis Cultural Trail: A Legacy of Gene & Marilyn Glick is a world-class urban bike and pedestrian path that connect neighborhoods, Cultural Districts and entertainment amenities, and serves as the downtown hub for the entire central Indiana greenway system. The 8 mile trail provides downtown connectivity, bicycle friendliness and urban walkability to the city.

Monon Trail The Monon Trail, completed in 2003, measures approximately 10.4 miles from 10th Street to 96th Street – the Marion-Hamilton county line, where it connects with the 5.2-mile Monon Greenway in Carmel. It also has direct connections to the Fall Creek Greenway and the Central Canal Towpath, which leads to the White River Wapahani Trail to form a trail network that reaches to the west side of the downtown district. Central Canal In the 1830’s, the Central Canal was envisioned as part of an eight-canal system to cross the state and link major points of commerce. After three years of construction and the introduction of railroads, debts halted the project, leaving the Central Canal with no connections to other navigable waterways. In 1881, the Indianapolis Water Company purchased the canal. The Central Canal is still a primary source of drinking water for the Indianapolis metro area and receives its water from the White River in the Broad Ripple area. The Central Canal Towpath provides connection from Broad Ripple to Downtown along the historic Indianapolis Water Company Canal. Additional greenways traverse the region, including Eagle Creek Trail, Fall Creek Trail, Little Buck Creek Trail, Pennsy Rail Trail, Pleasant Run Trail, Pogues Run Trail, White River Trail, White Lick Creek Trail, Zionsville Rail Trail, Tracy Trail, Landersdale Trail, 146th Street Trail, Vandalia Trail, Carey Road Trail and many others. Bicycling There are currently 64 miles of on-street bike lanes in operation in Marion County with another 200+ miles planned. With 25 stations and 250 bikes located on or near the Indianapolis Cultural Trail, the Pacers Bikeshare bicycles are available to anyone with a 24Hour Pass or Annual Membership. Carmel also has a bike rental program with two downtown locations.
