The Impact of Foreign-Trade Zones on American States and Puerto Rico
provides a state-by-state breakdown of foreign-trade zone activity in the 2007
fiscal year.* Each of these state analyses give special attention to the factors
reflecting foreign-trade zone growth: annual merchandise volume, exports,
employment, and business firm engagement. These statistics are extracted
from the required Annual Reports submitted by each foreign-trade zone to
the Foreign-Trade Zone Board in the U.S. Department of Commerce. These
reports are public information.
The goal of this study is to increase public awareness of foreign-trade zone
activity and the roles foreign-trade zones play in each state’s economy.
Although the Foreign-Trade Zones program is not large in scale, the statistical
and qualitative scale of this report amplifies the important role that foreigntrade zones play in U.S. and international trade. It also facilitates a year-overyear comparison and assessment of the program’s effectiveness.
In the material presented for each state, Chart 1, entitled “Foreign-Trade
Zones and Subzones,” defines annual volume as the currency value of
received merchandise, both domestic and foreign, and includes zone-to-zone
transfers to provide a complete picture of the business conducted in each
zone. Exports are considered the currency value of all goods that leave the
foreign-trade zone directly without first entering U.S. commerce, regardless
of origin before entrance into the zone. Employment includes all persons
engaged in activities under zone procedures. Active firms reflect the total
number of firms that were served by the zone during the fiscal year.
This report has been supported by U.S. foreign-trade zone grantee members
of the National Association of Foreign-Trade Zones in an effort to encourage
a greater understanding of foreign-trade zones and their role in national and
local economic development.
The statistical analysis in this report was created by Trinh Nguyen, a Master
of Arts candidate at the School of Advanced International Studies at Johns
Hopkins University and Natalie A. N. Kempkey, a Master of Arts recipient at
the School of Advanced International Studies at Johns Hopkins University,
both Research Analysts for the National Association of Foreign-Trade Zones.
*The fiscal year began on October 1, 2006 and ended on September 30, 2007.

The volume of FTZ activity in Arkansas increased 2.8%
from $1.52 billion in 2006 to $1.57 billion in 2007 due
to Lion Oil’s increase in its refining capacity at the El
Dorado plant. Lion Oil has used the economic benefits
of zone statues to make capital improvements at the El
Dorado refinery.
Exports from Arkansas FTZs remained at zero, while
exports of manufactured commodities from Arkansas
increased 14.7% during the 2007 calendar year.*

FTZ No. 14 maintains 1 subzone and serves 1 business,
Lion Oil, Inc., which operates the El Dorado oil refinery.
The refinery has 12 processing units and produces a
broad range of petroleum/petrochemical products, which
are consumed in the retail market of the United States.
Lion has benefited from the avoidance of Customs
duties on products manufactured in the subzone and
subsequently exported. Lion Oil has also benefitted from
inverted tariff which provided domestic refiners, who
import feedstocks, with a mechanism to offset the lower
finished product duty rates enjoyed by the foreign refiners
of these products.
