Industrial Areas
There are two main industrial zones in Narita: Nogedaira (野毛平?) and Toyosumi (豊住?). Both zones were laid out in the 1960s to take advantage of Narita Airport and the ability to quickly import and export goods by air. An aircraft part repair plant operated by JAL (Japan Airlines) and Pratt & Whitney, called Japan Turbine Technologies, is located in the Taiei industrial estate.
