Greenville Port Commission

The Port of Greenville, officially operated by the Greenville Port Commission, is a critical hub for inland waterway transportation situated on the Mississippi River in Greenville, Mississippi. As a deepwater inland port, it serves as a major gateway linking the agricultural and manufacturing sectors of the Mississippi Delta with both domestic and international trade routes via the Gulf of Mexico. The port’s strategic location enables efficient access to the nation’s inland waterway system, making it a vital logistics and distribution center for bulk and general cargo, particularly commodities such as grain, fertilizer, steel, and petroleum products. Its industrial zoning and expansive acreage accommodate a diverse range of facilities, supporting multimodal operations including barge, rail, and truck freight. The port’s ongoing growth and infrastructure improvements underscore its importance in supporting regional economic development, providing direct employment opportunities and fostering industry partnerships. Investments in modernization and intermodal connections further enhance its ability to handle increased freight volumes and adapt to evolving trade demands.
