    Overview

    The Port of Columbia County, located along the Columbia River in Oregon, serves as a vital logistics and industrial hub for the Pacific Northwest region. Its strategic position provides convenient access to both domestic and international markets, supporting the movement of diverse commodities including bulk grain, forest products, chemicals, and other industrial goods. The port encompasses a mix of maritime terminals, industrial parks, and multimodal facilities, enabling efficient connections between river, rail, and highway transportation networks. The port’s proximity to Portland and Vancouver, as well as its deep-water access, makes it an attractive site for manufacturing, warehousing, and distribution operations. While not a major container port, its terminals are instrumental for bulk and breakbulk shipments, handling millions of tons of cargo annually. The port also supports regional economic development, offering industrial land and modern infrastructure that cater to the needs of both established and emerging industries. Committed to sustainable growth, the Port of Columbia County invests in infrastructure improvements and environmental stewardship, ensuring continued competitiveness in the evolving landscape of Pacific Northwest maritime trade.
