Eloy lies at the midpoint of the Sun Corridor, a major population and freight growth axis linking Phoenix and Tucson. Historically an agricultural trade center, the city has transformed into a diversified economy with transportation, manufacturing, logistics, and industrial tenants, and is one of the Southwest’s primary freight and logistics corridors. As land and development costs rise in surrounding metro areas, industrial and logistics users are increasingly drawn to Eloy for its strategic midpoint location, available land, and transportation infrastructure.
Continued investment in I-10 improvements and planned regional infrastructure, including the proposed North–South Corridor (SR 505), is expected to further enhance connectivity throughout Pinal County. Proximity to major Central Arizona employment centers, advanced manufacturing, logistics parks, and inland port initiatives supports sustained demand for industrial land. Supported by favorable zoning, large-scale business park planning, and an expanding regional workforce, Eloy is well positioned for long-term industrial growth.
Transportation & Workforce Access
The site’s proximity to Interstate 10 enables direct access to Phoenix (~65 miles NW) and Tucson (~68 miles SE), facilitating efficient regional distribution and logistics operations. The adjacent Union Pacific mainline rail corridor supports freight movement across the Southwest, offering potential logistics advantages to industrial users.
Master-Planned Industrial Investment
Nearby large-scale developments and industrial parks are shaping long-term growth:
Sunshine Industrial Master Plan — a ±277-acre industrial site with outstanding access and utilities, federal Foreign Trade Zone (FTZ) approval, and potential connections to the Union Pacific Railroad for freight distribution.
Interstate 10-8 Business Park — a ~1,173-acre industrial/business park planned adjacent to I-10 and the UP rail line, part of both Opportunity and Foreign Trade Zone No. 75, signaling major employer interest and long-term regional planning
