According to the Porter Study, conducted by Harvard University, Georgia has the fourth largest logistics hub in the United States. Georgia’s manufacturing and logistics industries provide an unparalleled infrastructure that not only saves time and money, it provides a solid backbone for competing in an increasingly global marketplace.
Businesses can reach 80% of the US market within two hours by plane, and any major North American city four hours. International flights reach 45 cities and 30 countries, making the world’s business centres easily accessible. Hartsfield-Jackson is also the world’s leading air cargo centre, handling more than 900,000 US tons of goods each year. Georgia’s successful transformation into a supply chain leader certainly gives a new meaning to “Georgia on My Mind” and is an example of successful change built on a solid foundation.
The combination of Old-World charm and 21st Century supply chain sophistication makes Savannah an ideal destination to begin your own transformation toward successful change both in your business and in your personal life. This enlightening annual event will provide timeless insights and the tools necessary to take advantage of our changing industry in ways that will help you grow your business.
