Port of Shreveport-Bossier

The Port of Shreveport-Bossier, also known as the Port of Caddo-Bossier, is a vital inland multimodal transportation and distribution center located at the head of navigation on the Red River Waterway in northwest Louisiana. Serving as a strategic hub for the Ark-La-Tex region, the port supports connections by barge, rail, truck, and air, enabling efficient movement of goods across the United States and international markets. Occupying approximately 5,000 acres south of Shreveport-Bossier City, the port benefits from easy access to major interstate highways (I-20 and I-49), enhancing its role in facilitating commerce throughout the Gulf Coast and beyond. The port's linkage to the Mississippi River also ensures maritime access to northern domestic markets and the Gulf of Mexico. As the largest industrial park in the region, the port has significant capacity for future expansion and is integral to the economic engine of Northwest Louisiana, supporting industrial development, job creation, and regional logistics.
