📈 The Georgia Ports Authority is reporting another strong month for Georgia’s supply chain, with the Port of Savannah setting a September record for container volumes.
Savannah moved 504,015 TEUs in September, up 3.7% from September 2025, bringing the port’s first quarter of FY2027 to more than 1.5 million TEUs, its second-best quarter on record. GPA notes that strong consumer spending and an extended peak season helped drive September’s growth, with import loads up 5.5% year over year.
The continued growth also highlights the importance of the infrastructure supporting cargo beyond the terminal. GPA’s ongoing $1.6 billion Ocean Terminal renovation, the recently opened Brampton Road Connector, and improvements in port fluidity are all aimed at preparing Savannah’s supply chain network for continued demand.
At the Port of Brunswick, heavy machinery volumes increased nearly 12% in September, with 3,754 RoRo units handled during the month. For industries moving heavy and complex equipment, having logistics capabilities that extend beyond the port can be critical to keeping projects and supply chains moving.
With port-centric operations in Savannah and project cargo capabilities built to handle out-of-gauge, heavy, and oversized cargo, CLG is proud to support the manufacturers, exporters, and supply chain partners contributing to Georgia’s continued growth as a global logistics hub.
