Business Growth Trends in Mobile

A center in the U.S. South for medicine, retail, shipbuilding, steel, manufacturing and aerospace, Mobile is currently enjoying an economic growth period which began in the early 1990s. During the ten years starting in 1993, the city added nearly 14,000 new jobs and 400 local companies expanded operations. On top of that, almost 100 start-ups were founded by local entrepreneurs. 

The international Port of Mobile underwent a vast expansion immediately after the century began, investing more than $300 million in the Alabama State Docks. That meant an increase in the docks’ container storage capacity of more than 1,000 percent. The port now ranks 12th in the entire nation, based on tonnage alone. 

Austal USA and BAE Systems are a crucial part of the city’s shipbuilding presence, employing upwards of 5,000. One of the region’s most significant transport and industrial facilities, the Mobile Aeroplex at Brookley, is located just three miles south of downtown Mobile. The city’s largest employers include the Mobile County Public School System, Infirmary Health Systems, and the University of South Alabama. 

Mobile has bragging rights as the biggest city on the Gulf Coast between Florida and Louisiana and is the state’s only saltwater port. For more than a century, the port has been central to the economic growth of Mobile, and the city’s population of nearly 200,000 is currently witnessing continued commercial development in 2018. 

Mobile, Alabama’s Weather can be Harsh for Commercial Roofing

When it comes to commercial roof repair, Mobile is a city with unique needs. Local weather events can damage even the sturdiest structures. For commercial roofers, havoc from inclement weather in Mobile calls for special skills that the highly trained roofing specialists at Nations Roof can provide. 

Mobile’s wet, mild winters and sticky, hot summers are typical of gulf cities. The lowest temperature ever locally recorded was 1-degree below zero, in 1899. The record high of 105 degrees was set in 2000. The city is also the holder of the title, “Wettest city in the U.S.” It gets more than 65 inches of rain each year but almost never sees snow. 

The history of Mobile’s adverse weather can be summed up in one word: hurricanes. In 1979, Frederic came to town and did widespread damage, as did Katrina in 2005. Other, less destructive hurricanes visited: Opal in 1995 and Ivan in 2004. The total damage estimate (including economic impact) from Hurricane Katrina for the entire region was estimated to be higher than $250 billion, making it one of the costliest storms in recorded history. 

Two tornadoes that hit Mobile in 2012 did more than $150 million in damage. On average, Mobile sees plenty of destructive weather, with 15 heavy thunderstorms, four floods, and eight hail storms each year.
