Rebecca Collins

States & Site Selection Correspondent, American Commerce Review

Rebecca Collins covers the geography of American business: where companies build, which states compete for projects and how infrastructure and incentives shape site selection.

Her work separates announced investment from committed spending and public incentives from private capital, with project-level evidence tied to the state and site where it applies.

Rebecca's generalist remit is built around the geography of American business. She connects company decisions with the states in which factories, offices and infrastructure are actually located, keeping national announcements separate from site-level investment, employment and incentive figures.

Her reporting also follows how trade and infrastructure shape those location decisions. Ports, power, transport links, state policy and supplier networks can all determine whether an announced project becomes an operating asset, so her work looks beyond the headline commitment to the local conditions behind it.
