| FILLING A NICHE FOR RETAIL Porter Commons offers excellent visibility and is easily accessible by way of Highway 18 and the off-ramp exit onto Interstate 55. This center is the newest in Blytheville and the only new retail development in over 15 years. And along with its great location, its exceptional tenant mix makes it an area favorite. Shadow-anchored by Wal-Mart Supercenter, this popular retail destination also includes Payless Shoe Source, Freidman’s Jewelers, Claire's Boutique and many more. In addition, a site has been earmarked for additional retail. The Porter Commons attracts an average daily traffic of 16,000 vehicles and reaches over 15,000,000 people annually. Although commonly known for its agricultural areas and proximity to the Mississippi River, the city is also home to numerous major manufacturers. These include Nucor Steel, Yomato Steel Company, Maverick Tube Company, FKI Automotive Group and Huntco Steel. The Arkansas Aeroplex, an industrial complex located in Blytheville, is the second largest in the state. And the Rivermill complex, home to Nucor Steel and Yamato Steel, is the second largest production site in the nation.
