The Port of Savannah's trade with India

India represents enormous opportunities for Georgia's Ports. The Georgia Ports Authority's (GPA) overall trade with India grew faster than its trade with any other country among the top 20 over the past fiscal year. 

No other U.S. port expanded India trade by more containers than the Port of Savannah, by a margin of 14,000 twenty-foot equivalent container units, according to PIERS-Enterprise loaded cargo data. 

"Our growth trajectory with India is extremely strong and we are actively taking steps to increase our presence in the market," said Griff Lynch, GPA president and CEO. "As production shifts to India and as demand in its economy rises, that trade increasingly favors the Port of Savannah's strategic location over West Coast ports, due to time and cost."
