WHAT COMPANIES HERE FACE
The decisions in front of Cincinnati management teams.
Many mid-market firms here sell marketing, packaging or services to large consumer-goods and retail headquarters, so pricing pressure and customer concentration are constant concerns. Aerospace machine shops depend on GE Aerospace's engine output and face long qualification cycles and a tight market for machinists. Companies choose among Ohio, Kentucky and Indiana locations, where taxes and incentives differ.
