Strategic Location
How does it happen that manufacturers and logistics companies move faster in Washington County? A powerful combination makes it happen—a central Southeastern location combined with omni-modal options offering comprehensive reach through highway, rail, port, and air.
Located approximately 200 miles or less from four of Georgia’s major metros, Washington County connects manufacturers and logistics providers to crucial markets stretching from the Eastern Seaboard to the Midwest, and to markets around the globe through Georgia’s nationally leading ports and one of the world’s busiest airports in Atlanta.
Connect swiftly and cost-effectively through:
Logistics and manufacturing companies benefit from multi-modal options and proximity to deepwater ports such as Savannah and Brunswick, placing Washington County within reach of global markets without sacrificing small-town advantages.
Whether you’re launching a new operation or expanding an existing one, Washington County offers a location that enhances supply chain flexibility, market access, and long-term competitiveness, all supported by a community built to help businesses thrive.
Immediate access to the Fall Line Freeway, a four-lane divided highway that provides state and interstate connections across the state. State Route 15 also offers access to I-16 and I-20 just under an hour away.
Responsive short line rail service through Sandersville Railroad that connects shippers to Norfolk Southern’s extensive Class I rail network. That means blanket coverage of the Eastern U.S., including rapid global port access.
A 5,000-ft. runway and parallel taxiway that are part of the superb terminal facilities at the local Kaolin Field, offering ease in executive travel while, only 130 miles away, the Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport opens global travel and shipping at the world’s most popular airport.
Easy rail or highway access to two ports; the Port of Savannah, a Super Post-Panamax facility that is the single largest and busiest container port terminal in the U.S., and the Port of Brunswick, the nation’s single largest auto-port and the second busiest for Ro-Ro cargo. And just 10 miles from the Port of Savannah, the planned Jasper Ocean Terminal will provide yet another powerful option for Washington County transit operations.
