Top 25 Ports by Dry Bulk Tonnage
The Top 25 Ports by Dry Bulk Tonnage section highlights the critical hubs for moving non-liquid, unpackaged commodities like grain, coal, iron ore, and fertilizer.
Unlike container ports, which are dominated by the West and East Coasts, dry bulk tonnage is heavily concentrated in the Gulf Coast and Great Lakes regions, where the U.S. interior connects to global markets.
