New Jersey is one of the most trade-intensive states in the US, anchored by the Port of New York and New Jersey, the busiest port on the East Coast by container volume. The state exports pharmaceuticals, chemicals, machinery, and food products while serving as a major import gateway for consumer goods, apparel, and electronics destined for the Northeast. New Jersey's dense logistics infrastructure, including extensive warehousing and intermodal facilities, makes it a critical hub for US international trade.
The Port of New York and New Jersey is the largest port on the US East Coast and third largest nationally, handling over 9 million TEUs annually and serving as the primary gateway for imports into the Northeast consumer market.
New Jersey's top exports include pharmaceutical products, organic chemicals, industrial machinery, petroleum products, and food preparations, driven by the state's large pharmaceutical and chemical manufacturing base.
New Jersey's extensive warehouse and distribution network, concentrated in areas like the Meadowlands and Exit 8A corridor, makes it a primary distribution hub for imported goods reaching the 50-million-person Northeast consumer market.
