Cleveland FTZ Applies for Expansion into Neighboring County

The Cleveland Cuyahoga County Port Authority has applied to expand the area served by Foreign-Trade Zone 40, said a notice from the FTZ Board. The zone currently has a service area that includes Cuyahoga, Geauga, and Lorain Counties, Ohio. Under the proposed expansion, it would also cover Lake County. If approved, the zone’s grantee would be able to serve sites throughout the expanded service area based on companies’ needs for FTZ designation, said the FTZ Board. Comments are due by Dec. 8.
