Port Logistics Group opens hub in Savannah

Port Logistics Group has opened operations in Savannah with two new distribution customers, according to a company statement.

With the addition of Savannah, Port Logistics Group operates more than 5.5 million square feet of warehouse space in and around key U.S. ports, including New York/New Jersey, LA/Long Beach, and Seattle/Tacoma.

The new operation is located just 6 miles from the port of Savannah in a 685,000- square-foot facility. The company said it would perform detailed pick/pack and value added services for its new customers, including kitting, price ticketing and

labeling for a high-end retail bedding and home goods customer, and light manufacturing and kitting for a furniture company serving mass market retailers across the U.S.

"This expansion completes one of our key strategic goals – creating a national logistics provider that can serve customers in any of the major North American import gateways," said Greg Morello, chief marketing and strategy Officer for Port Logistics Group. "Our customers can now quickly adjust their supply chains to reduce costs, increase speed to market, and be confident that they’ll receive consistent service, regardless of the port of entry."
