Founded in 1960, MidAmerica Industrial Park has evolved into one of the leading centers for manufacturing, processing and distribution in the United States. Often described as the nation's largest rural industrial park, MidAmerica is located between Pryor Creek and Chouteau in northeast Oklahoma just about 38 miles east of Tulsa. The development has been recognized by leading economic development publications as a top-ranked expansion or relocation site for growing companies and has been named as a "Certified Industrial Park" by the Oklahoma Department of Commerce.
