(PRESS RELEASE) SAVANNAH, Georgia, 5-Dec-2025 — /EuropaWire/ — Maersk has expanded its U.S. logistics footprint with the launch of a new 20,000 sq. ft. Ground Freight Station in Savannah, Georgia, strengthening the company’s ground transportation network and improving speed and reliability for shippers across the Southeast. The site features three docks and a dedicated fleet, allowing for more efficient pickup and delivery services, enhanced local control, and better integration with Maersk’s existing U.S. logistics infrastructure.
