Shipping Companies Find a Home in Romulus

Logistics businesses are moving into Romulus, bringing more than 500 jobs to the area. The Ecorse Commons Industrial Park, near Detroit Metropolitan Airport, houses Hearn Industrial Services, Pitney Bowes, DHL, LaserShip and Lowes Inc. With e-commerce taking off, it joins another million square feet of warehouse space that has been built in Romulus in the past couple of years. The city of Romulus credits the developments to its streamline approach to permits and approvals, as well as the proximity to both Detroit Metro and Willow Run airports.
