In Central Florida, there is little argument in the industry that Orlando International Airport is key to a successful distribution enterprise.

"This particular area of south Orlando is well-located with immediate access to the Florida Turnpike and is in close proximity to other major transportation corridors that transverse through Florida," David Murphy, an industrial specialist in the Orlando office of CB Richard Ellis Inc., tells GlobeSt.com. "Companies which are utilizing air freight as well as ground transportation can minimize both fuel costs and time by locating in this submarket."

The broker says large distribution users are willing to pay more per square foot for industrial space in parks with the best access to transportation linkages.
