Our deep water port at the South Shore Trade Zone is less than a mile away from a full 10,000 feet runway airport and it gives the capabilities to our manufacturers that are coming here to not only ship from sea but by air as well.  Out of $52 billion worth of exports from the United States to the Caribbean, $25 billion comes through Virgin Islands ports
