Premier Rail Freight Connectivity
The city in which we operate ranks among the busiest rail hubs in North America by freight tonnage. Best Way Distribution is located just 1 mile from Union Pacific rail lines and 17 miles from BNSF Railway’s Argentine Yard classification facility. This proximity to Class I rail carriers provides seamless intermodal connectivity for businesses shipping bulk products.
Air and Port Access
Kansas City International Airport (KCI) serves as a major air cargo hub, offering connections to domestic and international destinations. For businesses requiring diverse shipping options, Port KC provides additional logistics infrastructure and foreign trade zone benefits that can reduce duty costs and streamline customs processes.
Foreign Trade Zone Benefits
The Greater Kansas City Foreign Trade Zone spans both Kansas and Missouri locations, offering significant cost advantages for companies handling imported materials or finished goods.
