The Yazoo County Port Commission manages the strategic port located in Yazoo City, Mississippi. This port serves as a key connector to the Mississippi River and the Inland Waterways via Vicksburg, offering critical distribution and transportation options for regional industries and agricultural producers. Yazoo County Port has historically played a significant role in facilitating commerce for the surrounding Delta, enabling the efficient movement of commodities—particularly agricultural products—between local producers and global markets. Its proximity to land, rail, and river networks provides a versatile gateway: US-49, MS-3, MS-16, and SR-149 deliver robust road connectivity, and a Class 1 rail spur ties the port with the Canadian National (CN) rail network. The port's available developable acreage supports expanding logistics and warehousing operations, enhancing Yazoo County's economic resilience and export potential. As smaller ports support the region's farming sector and supplement larger river gateways, Yazoo County Port continues to maintain its importance for Mississippi’s infrastructure, allowing businesses in the area to tap into global shipping partnerships and remain competitive on an international scale.
