The Greater Clinton Region:
Connected Locally & Globally
We’ve got logistics down pat!
The mighty Mississippi River powers much of our production – and as one of the largest per capita manufacturing centers in the nation – keeps our region flowing forward. Our 450-acre rail park has a direct connection to Union Pacific’s main line, and travel time to Chicago, the nation’s third largest city, is shorter than any other community in Iowa, which means businesses are connected better and faster to the rest of the world.
Centuries-old companies choose our bi-state region for its efficient transportation ecosystem.
