WHAT COMPANIES HERE FACE
The decisions in front of Oxnard management teams.
Land and housing are expensive and tightly controlled, and Ventura County's voter-approved SOAR measures limit the conversion of farmland, which constrains industrial and housing growth. Growers face labour availability, water costs and competition from imports, while manufacturers weigh California costs against moving some production out of state. Defense contractors around the naval base depend on federal budget timing and test schedules.
WHERE TO START

Capacity & footprint planning
