Charlotte:An International CityCharlotte’s rich economic base, strengthened by diverse industries, attracts foreign-owned companies and valuable employees. For foreign-owned firms in particular, Charlotte offers exceptional air service, foreign trade zones, transparent government and business practices, and numerous nonprofit organizations that focus on international business, foreign policy and global culture.

Charlotte-Mecklenburg is home to the honorary consuls of Estonia, France, Germany, Guatemala, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Mexico, Moldova, Nicaragua, Switzerland and the United Kingdom. The Charlotte Foreign Trade Zone, which allows goods to be imported from overseas duty free and stored or manufactured into a product, is one of the largest in the state.

Charlotte is America’s second-largest financial center, home to the world headquarters of Bank of America, the nation’s

second-largest bank. Bank of America operates in hundreds of cities in 43 countries, including the financial capitals of Frankfurt, Hong Kong, London, Mexico City, Milan, Paris, Seoul, Singapore, Taipei, Tokyo and Zurich.

CMS operates four language immersion schools with programs in German, French, Mandarin Chinese, and Spanish. There are also nine private international schools that help students maintain language skills and identities of the following cultures:

Why International Companies Choose CharlotteCharlotte has many resources available for foreign-owned companies and individuals with diverse backgrounds.

The city of Charlotte’s office of International Relations works to foster international relationships.

The World Affairs Council of Charlotte (WACC), a regional center for education and discussion of world affairs, provides leadership for global thinking, believing that a broad perspective is necessary for effective competition in the global economy and for responsible citizenship in an increasingly interdependent world.

The WACC is a member of the World Affairs Councils of America. Together with approximately 100 other World

Affairs Councils and affiliates across the country, WACC focuses on improving international education and encouraging citizens to participate in the national dialogue on world affairs. More than 2,500 people have participated in ongoing lectures and programs that feature speakers who share thoughtful discourse on significant issues impacting communities around the world.

The International House, formed in 1981, promotes international understanding and serves immigrants in need. The nonprofit organization’s services include foreign language conversation hours, cultural and educational programs, an international book club, citizen diplomacy programs, an international women’s group, language classes, free citizenship workshops and legal assistance for low-income immigrants.

Reasons international companies choose Charlotte:

• Excellent U.S. market access from a central Atlantic coast location

• Large airport hub with direct international flights

• Pro-business local government

• Highly productive workforce for manufacturing and services

• State-funded worker training programs

• Extraordinary quality of life

• Below-average cost of living

• Rich international business and cultural communities (See page 24)

• Foreign language schools

• Excellent universities and research programs

Charlotte was listed in the top 10 cities for export assistance.

The following is a short summary of the Charlotte Chamber’s services for companies that plan to establish operations at any level and consider Charlotte-Mecklenburg a potential location. The Charlotte Chamber is a private, nonprofit organization dedicated to the economic development of the city of Charlotte and Mecklenburg County. One of our main objectives is to attract companies to our city, and we offer our services at no charge. Our role is to support investors in all phases of their projects with the following services and to maintain project confidentiality:

• Provide data on all aspects of local infrastructure, including highway and air connections; wages and salaries; availability and skill level of local workers; commercial real estate lease rates; and the availability of office, warehouse and manufacturing space, among other things.

• Develop contacts with selected managers of the many foreign-owned companies in Charlotte-Mecklenburg so that our clients may form a completely independent impression of our city and county.

• Provide referrals to law firms that specialize in establishing foreign companies’ U.S. subsidiaries and obtaining U.S. visas for key employees.

• Provide contacts with tax advisors, accountants, bankers and other providers of services typically required by new U.S. subsidiaries.

• Conduct tours of identified real estate options.

• Conduct city-county tours to familiarize clients with Charlotte’s many areas: town, industrial zones, residential housing neighborhoods, etc.

• Make introductions to regional technical schools and universities that offer customized training programs for new workers.
