It's been more than 50 years since the Port of Vicksburg was founded on the Yazoo River Diversion Canal, north of where the Yazoo River meets the Mississippi River in Warren County, Miss. The venture has proven a significant anchor for the region, with the port and its tenants accounting for a pre-pandemic workforce of more than 4,000 employees across 21 industries. Tenants include Ergon and Ergon Refining, Magnolia Marine, Gavilon, Citco, Falco Chemical, Anderson Tully, DTE Petcoke, Waring Oil, MS Lime Company, Smith Towing Company, Neill Gas and CAM2 International. Besides its tenants, Watco Companies LLC serves as the terminal operator for the public terminal, and both the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the U.S. Coast Guard also maintain bases of operation within the port's slackwater harbor. |
