Welcome to Midwest Terminals of Toledo International - U.S.A.!
We may not be as "famous" yet as our sister ports along
the Eastern Seaboard, the West Coast or the Gulf Coast
but
we're getting there! That's because an increasing number of trans-Atlantic
shippers are discovering that the most cost-effective
- if not also the most direct - entry point to
markets in the Midwest U.S. is
Toledo, Ohio.
Amazing but true, both Brussels and Brazil are closer to Midwest
markets via Toledo than the Gulf ports. The Port of Toledo is certainly
more cost-effective for connecting to the Midwest than the East Coast ports. Surprised?
Welcome to the North Coast! We're also described as the "Express
Lane to The Midwest" since Toledo is virtually the mid-point
port of The St. Lawrence Seaway and Great Lakes shipping corridor
and the nexus of U.S. rail and interstate highway systems. Fact
is, Toledo is within a 20-hour drive of 72% of the U.S. population!
