Worth knowing in Lehigh Valley
Within a day's drive of New York, Philadelphia and much of New England, the Lehigh Valley's distribution parks ship a large share of the region's e-commerce. Volume peaks sharply in the fourth quarter. Snack and beverage plants here, and a well-known guitar maker and candy companies nearby, add case and product packaging needs of their own.
Interstate 78 runs from the valley to the New Jersey ports in about an hour and a half, and the Northeast Extension of the turnpike links it to Philadelphia.
