Due to its close proximity to the coast, Savannah has milder winters and cooler summers than Georgia's interior. Savannah's port has always been a mainstay of the city's economy.

On March 29, 2008, Metro Ports expanded operations to Savannah, GA. Our new terminal comprises a 14.85-acre tract on the south side of the Savannah River, including a deep-water private slip. The terminal contains a 255,000 square foot warehouse and has direct rail and highway access.

Currently, Metro offers export and import bulk and breakbulk stevedore and marine terminal services as well as bagging services. The facility specializes in a variety of bulk cargo capabilities.
