“Our inland ports are seeing cargo increases month after month as more port-dependent businesses take advantage of the reliable, swift and direct rail connection between the Port of Charleston and inland markets,” SC Ports President and CEO Barbara Melvin said.

“Our inland ports are an example of what we do best – strategically invest to deliver a creative solution that further supports importers and exporters.”

In March, SC Ports announced plans to buy the former WestRock paper mill site in North Charleston to boost the Port of Charleston’s capacity.
