Port Manatee Real Estate - New business opportunities are now sprouting in the thousands of acres of undeveloped land around Port Manatee. As Port Manatee completes its $150 million expansion to accommodate increased container business, land deals surrounding the port are escalating.
Location
Being the closest deep water seaport to the Panama Canal, Port Manatee is a logical choice for trade with Pacific Rim markets and provides superior access to Mexico, Central and South America and the Caribbean basin. With the future expansion of this vital waterway, Panama Canal's capacity will double, allowing it to handle ships much larger than today's Panamax ships.
Expansion
Between Port Manatee and the adjacent Port Manatee Commerce Center, the two properties offer over 1.3 million square feet of modern office and warehouse space. Once Berth 12 is extended from its current 1,000 foot length to 1,584 feet it will accommodate up to Panamax-size vessels.
Intermodal
Given its rural surroundings, excellent highway and rail access, Port Manatee provides fast throughput ensuring cargo gets from shippers to customers as quickly as possible. Port Manatee owns and operates its own Class III railroad with 8 miles of on-site and exchange yard tracks connecting to CSX Transportation rail lines. Completing the intermodal picture is 65 mph access to the interstate system directly from Port Manatee's gates. Trucks reach I-75 and I-275 without encountering any stoplights, putting all of North America in reach without the hassle of urban congestion.
