Mobile, Alabama: Where Gulf Coast Logistics Begins
Mobile is more than our home — it is the logistical nerve center of the central Gulf Coast. Situated where the Mobile River meets Mobile Bay, this port city has been a vital trade gateway since the French founded it in 1702. Today, Mobile ranks among the fastest-growing container ports in North America, and Fairway Logistics is proud to operate from the center of it all at 456 Dauphin Street, Mobile, AL 36602.
The Port of Mobile handles over 60 million tons of cargo annually, including containerized goods, steel, coal, and forest products. With the port's recent expansion of its container terminal and the deepening of the ship channel to 50 feet, Mobile is positioned to capture even more international trade. As a logistics company in Mobile, AL, Fairway Logistics provides the critical last-mile and regional distribution services that connect the port to manufacturers, retailers, and construction sites across the Southeast.
Mobile's strategic position at the junction of Interstate 10 (the southern transcontinental corridor) and Interstate 65 (the north-south spine connecting the Gulf to the Great Lakes) makes it an ideal hub for freight distribution. Whether your cargo arrives by vessel at the Port of Mobile, by rail on CSX or Norfolk Southern lines, or by truck from the Brookley Aeroplex, our fleet and brokerage network can move it where it needs to go — on time and within budget.
