💨 Abstract

The Port of Savannah had its second-busiest year in 2025, handling 5.7 million container units. This increase, driven by retailers stocking up ahead of anticipated tariffs under President Trump, marked an 8.6% rise from the previous year. However, uncertainties from fluctuating tariff policies led to a drop in June volumes. Similar trends were seen in other major ports like Los Angeles and New York/New Jersey.
