Port of Louisville

Strategically positioned at latitude 38.23 north and longitude -85.77 west on the Ohio River, Louisville (UN/LOCODE USLUI) serves as Kentucky’s premier inland multimodal gateway, linking barge, rail, and interstate highway networks for efficient bulk, breakbulk, and containerized cargo movement. Operated within the America/New_York timezone, the facility offers deep‑draft berths, modern crane infrastructure, and integrated warehousing, supporting agricultural exports, steel imports, and energy commodities. Its proximity to major rail yards and the I‑64/I‑71 corridors enhances supply‑chain velocity, reducing transit times to Midwestern and Southeastern markets while maintaining compliance with U.S. Customs and environmental regulations for sustained competitive advantage across global markets.
