Downtown Miami, FL

Miami and Southeast Florida are home to the largest ports in Florida. It stands out as one of the main points of entry for goods to the United States, especially from the Americas and the Caribbean region. Southeast Florida is a benchmark in international trade, particularly in North America, serving as a business hub for free trade zones and distribution centers for the entire North American and Caribbean region.

The advantages and geographic location, the cultural and ethnic diversity of its population and residents, the availability of labor, and the current offer of specialized services for international trade activities allow Miami to consolidate itself as an important business destination in the following economic areas:
