OmniTRAX Powers Growth of Central Arizona Commerce Park, the Epicenter of Arizona’s Thriving Innovation Corridor
North America’s fastest growing railroad marks third rail network expansion in past six months
PHOENIX – September 5, 2024 – OmniTRAX, one of the largest privately held infrastructure developers in North America, has acquired Central Arizona Commerce Park’s (“CAZCP”) rail infrastructure and remaining park acreage. With this acquisition, OmniTRAX becomes the exclusive infrastructure partner of the 679-acre industrial park. This strategic move marks OmniTRAX’s third rail transaction in the past six months and positions the company as a key growth partner in the United States’ burgeoning semiconductor and electric vehicle (EV) supply chain sectors.
“Saint Holdings has been a visionary developer in the valley, and we are excited to help expand CAZCP’s exceptional owner base and grow the region,” said OmniTRAX CEO Dean Piacente. “Jackob Andersen has played a pivotal role in making Pinal County and Casa Grande one of the Southwest region’s premier logistics hubs and OmniTRAX is excited to work with our local and state partners to power the park’s long-term growth and development.”
Pinal County’s innovation corridor, home to CAZCP, is a designated Arizona mega-economic region due to its concentration of global technology, advanced manufacturing, and distribution companies. The park includes Lucid Motors, Tractor Supply, Wright Asphalt, Triumvirate Environmental, and numerous Tier-1 material suppliers to the semiconductor industry. These businesses are crucial to the U.S.’s onshoring and domestic manufacturing efforts in advanced, high-tech industries. The Casa Grande area also boasts other industry giants such as Kohler, Wal-Mart, and Hexcel Corporation.
“CAZCP’s exceptional location and logistics advantages are unmatched,” said Saint Holdings CEO Jackob Andersen. “OmniTRAX adds valuable infrastructure expertise and industry relationships to a very dynamic park clientele. We are thrilled about the new partnership and look forward to growing the region.”
CAZCP offers exceptional rail connections via the Union Pacific network, as well as multi-modal access to the Ports of Long Beach and Los Angeles, and the Phoenix and Tucson international airports. These connections provide an ideal location for companies seeking to streamline their supply chains or power domestic and global expansion.

By combining rail and real estate expertise, OmniTRAX powers major industrial hubs spanning from Arizona to Georgia.
