Why Oxnard?
Any business scouting locations along the West Coast for a dedicated distribution center would do well to consider Oxnard, California. Home to the Port of Hueneme — the only deep water harbor between Los Angeles and the San Francisco Bay area — Oxnard has long been a major hub for international trade. Oxnard’s location along the Pacific Coast Highway and US 101 also allows for easy access to major cities along the West Coast, including Los Angeles and San Diego to the south and San Jose and San Francisco to the north.
In addition to its strategic location, Oxnard is the most populous city in Ventura County with over 200,000 residents, resulting in a strong labor market. Oxnard also boasts a business-friendly environment: Both the city itself and the state of California offer economic development, workforce development and business assistance programs to support companies looking to start or expand operations.
