ITGO has provided a voice for the logistics needs of our bi-national region, in regards to land use, workforce, policy and other areas. Their efforts, and attention to an often overlooked aspect of economic development, are critical to regional planning strategy

Hal Morse, Executive Director
Greater Buffalo Niagara Regional Transportation Council (GBNRTC)

While the current and future state of manufacturing is a focus of economic development, effective movement of materials in for production and out for delivery is critical to every manufacturer's agility and success. ITGO has recognized the value of reliable infrastructure and logistics services and is the single organization that will ensure stakeholders' logistics needs have the proper visibility and advocacy.
