Why Nevada

Why Nevada

Nevada is a very business friendly state for businesses looking to locate or expand to the area and provides incentives to do so.

Taxation

Companies can achieve significant tax savings by locating their warehousing and distribution functions in Nevada verses other western states.

Nevada also offers several tax advantages over other west-coast states:

  • No Corporate Income Tax
  • No Personal Income Tax
  • No Inventory Tax
  • No Franchise Tax
  • Non-Unitary State
  • Inheritance Tax
  • Estate and/or Gift Tax
  • Special Intangible Tax

Climate

Our weather is relatively mild and dry. Products are generally not subject to severe weather, which results in longer carton and product shelf life.

Workforce

Northern Nevada’s warehousing and distribution workforce constitutes 13% of the total workforce. The University of Nevada, Reno is home to one of the top five logistics programs in the nation. The area also has two community colleges with excellent trade programs, producing an industry-educated workforce.
