Port of Savannah records second busiest February ever

The Port of Savannah handled nearly 395,000 teu in February, marking its second busiest February ever after 2022 according to the Georgia Ports Authority (GPA). 

Having handled 460,400 teu in the same period last year, port officials said that inflation, rising interest rates and high warehouse inventories are important factors in the container trade dip. 

Griff Lynch, GPA’s executive director, said: “Our global economy is facing headwinds, but Georgia’s deepwater ports continue to deliver dependable performance to keep business thriving.
