Foreign Trade Zone #235 is administered by the Lakewood Development Corporation on behalf of the
Grantee, the Township of Lakewood.  A foreign-trade zone is a designated location in the United States 
where companies can use special procedures that help encourage U.S. activity and value added - 
in competition with foreign alternatives - by allowing delayed or reduced duty payments on foreign
merchandise, as well as other savings.
