We bring more than $6.4 billion a year to the Portland area. But what do those numbers really mean?

    Driving Local/Regional Businesses
    From airport refreshments to business parks to auto shippers to warehouse renters, we help grow our region’s economy. We also provide contract opportunities for certified small businesses.
