Based on the most recent data from 2024, the top imports to the United States from the United Arab Emirates by value are: Mineral fuels, oils, distillation products ($1.79 Billion) Commodities not specified according to kind ($1.32 Billion) Aluminum ($1.28 Billion) Essential oils, perfumes, cosmetics, toiletries ($663.31 Million) Articles of iron or steel ($589.09 Million) Here's a look at which states in the U.S. have manufacturing capabilities in these sectors, along with examples of companies: Mineral Fuels, Oils, Distillation Products: Texas: A major hub for the oil and gas industry, involved in extraction, refining, and the production of various petroleum products. Examples include ExxonMobil, Chevron, and ConocoPhillips.   Louisiana: Another significant state in oil and gas, with extensive refining and petrochemical facilities. Companies like Marathon Petroleum and Valero Energy have operations here.   California: While known for technology, California also has oil and gas production and refining, though on a smaller scale than Texas or Louisiana. Companies such as Phillips 66 have refineries in the state. Other states with oil and gas activities include Alaska, Oklahoma, and Pennsylvania.   Commodities not specified according to kind: This is a broad category encompassing diverse goods that are not easily classified. Manufacturing of these unspecified commodities would be highly varied and occur across many states depending on the specific nature of the goods. It's difficult to pinpoint specific states or companies without knowing the exact types of these commodities. However, states with a strong and diverse manufacturing base like California, Texas, Illinois, Ohio, and Pennsylvania are likely to be involved in producing a wide array of such goods. Aluminum: Kentucky: Has significant aluminum production facilities. Novelis operates a large aluminum rolling plant in Kentucky.   Washington: Home to primary aluminum smelters. Alcoa has a presence in Washington. Alabama: Has aluminum production and processing facilities. Wise Alloys is an example.   Other states with aluminum manufacturing include Indiana, Ohio, and South Carolina.   Essential oils, perfumes, cosmetics, toiletries: New Jersey: Has a strong base in the fragrance and cosmetics industry. Companies like International Flavors & Fragrances (IFF) and Givaudan (with US headquarters in NJ) produce essential oils and fragrance compounds. Many cosmetic companies also have manufacturing in the state.   New York: Home to numerous cosmetic and personal care product manufacturers. Estée Lauder Companies and L'Oréal USA have operations in New York.   California: Has a growing market for natural and organic personal care products, with many smaller and larger manufacturers. Other states with manufacturing in this sector include Illinois, Ohio, and Pennsylvania. Articles of iron or steel: Indiana: Has a significant steel production and fabrication industry. Companies like Steel Dynamics and Nucor have facilities in Indiana.   Ohio: Another major steel-producing state with various fabrication companies. Cleveland-Cliffs has operations in Ohio.   Pennsylvania: Has a long history of steel manufacturing and continues to have fabrication and processing plants.   Other states with iron and steel manufacturing include Illinois, Michigan, and Alabama.   It's important to note that while these states have manufacturing capabilities in the same general sectors as the top imports from the UAE, the specific types, grades, and quantities of goods produced might differ. Global supply chains often involve specialization, and even if a U.S. state can manufacture a similar product, it might not be a direct substitute for the imported good due to cost, quality, or specific applications.
