Foreign–Trade Zone 231—Stockton,
CA, Application for Subzone Status,
Medline Industries, Inc., (Medical
Supply Distribution)
An application has been submitted to
the Foreign–Trade Zones Board (the
Board) by the Port of Stockton, grantee
of FTZ 231, requesting special–purpose
subzone status for the medical supply
distribution facility of Medline
Industries, Inc., located in Lathrop,
California. The application was
submitted pursuant to the provisions of
the Foreign–Trade Zones Act, as
amended (19 U.S.C. 81a–81u), and the
regulations of the Board (15 CFR part
400). It was formally filed on June 15,
2006.
The Medline facility (277,200 sq. ft./
12.49 acres/30 employees) is located at
18250 Murphy Parkway, Lathrop,
California. The facility is used for
warehousing and distribution of
foreign–origin and domestic medical
supplies for the U.S. market and export.
FTZ procedures would be utilized to
support Medline’s import and domestic
distribution activity. Finished medical
supplies to be admitted to the proposed
subzone for distribution would include:

surgical/medical gloves of plastic,

cases, and toiletry items. The
application states that all quota–class
textile and apparel products classified
under Textile Import Quota categories
would be admitted to the proposed
subzone under domestic (duty–paid)
status (19 CFR § 146.43), and any
products subject to antidumping duties
would be admitted under domestic
(duty–paid) or privileged foreign status
(19 CFR § 146.41).
FTZ procedures would exempt
Medline from Customs duty payments
on foreign products that are re–
exported. On domestic sales, the
company would be able to defer
payments until merchandise is shipped
from the facility and entered for U.S.
consumption. Medline also plans to
utilize certain logistical benefits that
will help facilitate the distribution of
domestic and foreign merchandise in a
consolidated manner. The application
indicates that all of the above–cited
savings from FTZ procedures would
help improve the facility’s international
competitiveness.
In accordance with the Board’s
