What is local to Calgary
In February 2025 the City of Calgary and Rocky View County approved an agreement for the Prairie Economic Gateway, a proposed inland port on Calgary's eastern edge built around the CPKC rail network and projected to generate more than 30,000 jobs over 10 to 12 years. Warehousing, material-handling and transport equipment for that kind of growth is financed against the equipment itself, alongside the service and field equipment of the energy sector.
Calgary Economic Development says the city has the highest concentration of head offices per person in Canada (FP500, 2024) and is home to the head offices of almost every major oil and natural gas company. YYC Calgary International Airport handles 75% of Alberta's air cargo shipments and recorded 5,231 cargo landings in 2025.
