 Geographic Location
Punta Gorda is centrally located between major markets like Tampa to the north and Naples/Fort Myers to the south. This allows for efficient distribution across the entire West Coast of Florida.
The city is located directly on Interstate 75, which runs the length of the state, connecting the region to Tampa, Sarasota, Bradenton, and even reaching further south to Miami on the East Coast. This makes it highly accessible for ground-based logistics and trucking operations.
Punta Gorda Airport offers the potential for air freight logistics, which can support the movement of goods both in and out of the region. Though primarily a passenger airport, its expanding infrastructure makes it an emerging hub for commercial cargo as well.
Compared to larger markets like Tampa or Miami, Punta Gorda offers more affordable land and real estate prices, which can significantly lower the cost of setting up a distribution facility. The availability of industrial-zoned land makes it an attractive option for warehouses and distribution centers.
