Public/Private Sector Connectivity

While Southern Nevada is known for having a melting pot community, boasting a population in excess of 2 million residents, the community remains tightly knit and accessible through a few degrees of separation. As the regional development authority for Southern Nevada since 1956, our team and membership provide new and expanding businesses with one to two degrees of separation within Nevada’s public and private sectors.

Foreign Trade Zone

LVGEA offers businesses the privilege of establishing, operating, and maintaining a foreign trade zone. This program authorizes businesses duty and tariff deferrals until imported goods exit the zone and are distributed domestically for consumption. Reexported goods receive additional benefits in the form of duty and tariff exemptions. Learn more about the benefits of a Foreign Trade Zone designation.
