You're the top!

People hear Buffalo Niagara and they think broad shoulders. We've got plenty of them, but we're also home to a broad range of industries. Frankly, all of our businesses are tops with us, but for a quick glance at a few of the places where Buffalo Niagara works:

Our citizens have been banking on M&T Bank for over 150 years. During that time, the bank has grown to a regional powerhouse, with branches throughout the mid-Atlantic states. Like our citizens, M&T remembers its roots, and remains head-quartered in downtown Buffalo.

The first comprehensive cancer center in the nation, Roswell Park Cancer Institute has been helping set the standard for cancer care, research, and education since 1898. People ask about its name and the answer is, no, it's not located in 'Roswell Park.' Roswell Park was the far-seeing physician who founded the Institute.
With over fifty years in Buffalo Niagara, Moog is no fly by night organization. Starting out as a designer and supplier of aircraft and missile components, the company has grown to cover a wide range of motion control applications. Their technology is found in power-generation turbines, in Formula One racing, in medical infusion systems, among others. And yes, Moog technology is still flying by night in commercial aircraft cockpits. 

GM Powertrain has been a driving force in the Buffalo Niagara since 1938. Since that time, nearly 70 million car engines have been manufactured in Tonawanda. So they've got an awful lot of miles under their belt as a top employer in our region.

The name might be new, but HSBC has a long heritage in the Buffalo Niagara community. And as part of one of the largest banking and financial services organizations in the world, HSBC provides our region access to global markets and services.

The largest health care provider in Western New York, Kaleida Health keeps Buffalo Niagara's people healthy through a network of hospitals and other facilities that provide the region with state-of-the-art technology and comprehensive healthcare services.

Rich Products has been topping off desserts for over 60 years. During that time, they've grown into a multi-national force in the food industry, with a broad range of offerings, including baked goods, seafood, meat products, and pasta. With a presence in more than 70 countries, Rich still calls Buffalo Niagara home. (You might say they're the icing on our cake.)

The University at Buffalo is the largest and most comprehensive university center in the State University of New York system, and one of the nation's leading research universities. UB's mission? To improve the quality of life for the people of Buffalo Niagara and the world at large.

With its strategic bi-national site, Buffalo Niagara was a natural to become one of FedEx's Trade Networks locations, where customers of all sizes can find the help they need to ship their goods globally.
