When it comes to supply chain and logistics, Georgia stands out as a leading force in the industry. With the busiest airport in the world – Hartfield Jackson Atlanta International Airport, the fastest growing container port in the country – the Port of Savannah, and quality rail, roads, and IT, our state is perfectly positioned to connect with domestic and global markets. In fact, 80% of the U.S. population is within a 2-hour radius by air.

Each year, Georgia’s logistics infrastructure and services handle and transport over $900 billion worth of cargo. Our state is also home to 85% of the world’s top third-party logistics companies and more than 140 supply chain and logistics technology companies, further cementing our status as a global logistics hub.

But, supply chain goes beyond traditional infrastructure. As such, the TAG Supply Chain, Logistics, & Manufacturing Society will soon provide an opportunity for you to learn more about the world of supply chain operations in all its diversity. Join us on August 16th for a behind-the-scenes supply chain tour of the Atlanta Braves at Truist Park. You’ll discover how the Braves’ team manages its logistics to deliver an exceptional fan experience day in and day out. As an optional add-on, you’ll also see the Braves’ supply chain in action during the evening game against the New York Yankees!
