All Roads Lead to Chicago.

Chicagoland sits at the center of North America’s transportation network — where road, rail, air, and water converge to move goods around the world. The region is home to O'Hare International Airport — the nation’s busiest cargo airport — one of the largest inland ports in the Western Hemisphere, and a logistics workforce more than 200,000 strong.

Global corporations like UPS, Amazon, C.H. Robinson, and United Airlines anchor a supply chain ecosystem that blends industrial capacity with technological innovation. From advanced warehousing and automation to green freight and last-mile delivery, Chicagoland continues to set the standard for efficient, connected, and sustainable logistics operations.

WHY CHICAGO?

• Unmatched Connectivity: Chicagoland is the only region in the U.S. where six of the nation’s seven Class I railroads converge, alongside the world-class O’Hare International Airport and easy access to interstate highways and Great Lakes shipping routes.

• Strategic Location: Located within a one-day drive of over half the U.S. population, Chicagoland offers direct access to key consumer and industrial markets.

• Integrated Innovation: The region’s logistics and manufacturing sectors collaborate closely with local universities, technology firms, and R&D centers to advance automation, sustainability, and digital supply chain solutions.

• Skilled Workforce: A deep bench of operations, engineering, and logistics talent supports every aspect of supply chain management — from warehousing to analytics.
