Any business will benefit from Saint Peter's location and proximity to interstate transportation networks.
TRANSPORTATION Three highways run through Saint Peter: U.S. Highway 169, Minnesota Highway 22, Minnesota Highway 99. Interstate 35 is just 29 miles east, while Interstate 90 is 69 miles south.
METRO AREA Saint Peter is near, but not within, the Minneapolis/Saint Paul metro area. This means businesses benefit from both rural and metropolitan advantages: lower costs, short commutes, ease of movement, a strong network of support services and suppliers.
AIRPORT The Minneapolis-Saint Paul International Airport is within an hour's drive of Saint Peter (less time than it takes to travel through most major cities). Mankato Regional Airport, just five miles east of Saint Peter, accommodates Boeing 727, 737, 757 and DC9 aircraft on its 100- by 6600-foot runway.
"Saint Peter is at the center of our 100-mile service radius, and we have easy access to Highway 169 from here. The community is small enough for trucks to drive through in a short amount of time, which increases efficiency."
