Relocating a warehouse which state too choose

[RookQueen]

I have a friend who is relocating a warehouse from the northeast, beyond corporate tax rates, cost per square foot, centrally located, generally nice weather, secure, and relatively safe, what are some hidden issues that can be important?

He does significantly more business on the East Coast and some deliveries can be time-sensitive, so while he hasn't ruled out Nevada, Washington, Wyoming, or any other state their advantages would have to go further than say Texas, Ohio, or South Carolina.

Seasonal shipping can be a concern, November through April are the biggest months, and any days lost to weather can become a semi-hassle.

Does DI have any thoughts or input? Thanks

Is it a wholesale bulk apparel warehouse?
