CLG & Port of Savannah: A Partnership for the Next Era of Logistics

As global trade dynamics shift and supply chains demand greater agility, the Port of Savannah has emerged as a powerhouse of growth and innovation. In 2024, Savannah’s container volume surged by 12.5%, outpacing all other East Coast and Gulf Coast ports—even amid freight diversions caused by the longshoreman strike. With $4 billion in infrastructure investments planned over the next decade, Savannah is redefining its role as a major gateway to the U.S. market.

Transforming the Port Landscape

Savannah’s strategic expansion is designed to meet the demands of next-generation logistics. Key initiatives include:

• Raising the Talmadge Memorial Bridge by 20 feet, enabling access for larger container vessels.
• Deepening the Savannah River channel by 5 feet, overcoming current depth limitations and accommodating massive ships.
• Adding five new passing lanes on the river, reducing vessel turnaround time from 12 hours to just 3 hours.
• Developing a new container terminal on Hutchison Island, significantly expanding port capacity.
• Establishing a lay berth staging area, enhancing ship readiness and port fluidity.

These developments are supported by Georgia’s top-tier business climate—ranked #4 for business and #1 for infrastructure by CNBC—making Savannah a magnet for global commerce.
