Hitham Al-Alaweyat

Agricultural exports are the business of Hitham Al-Alaweyat, based in Marathon, a village in southern Cortland County. It sits on the agriculture and export side of the local economy, in a rural part of Central New York where farming is still a way of life.

Exporters connect products from local farms and producers with buyers farther away. In a county where agriculture and manufacturing have both shaped the economy, that kind of business plays its own quiet part in getting goods out the door.
