But no worries, since we have another area in this region that can be considered for warehouses and factories, which located 30 minutes apart from Cikarang. This area called Karawang New Industry City (KNIC) and has a strategic location near 2 airports and the capital city.

This situation also makes KNIC the right area to build a business of manufacturing and warehouse companies. Every company needs a warehouse that can efficiently store goods and be close to the infrastructure that supports it and these things are only found in KNIC.

Not to mention the concept promoted by KNIC is basically a world-class integrated industrial city so that the presence of world-class infrastructure is clearly visible here.
