Port Freeport came into being more than 100 years ago when the first jetty system was built in Freeport, Texas.  Since that time, the Port has become one of the fastest growing ports on the Gulf Coast ranking 6th in chemicals, 15th in foreign waterborne tonnage, and 26th in containers.  A 2019 Economic Impact Study by Texas A&M Transportation Institute revealed that, nationally, the Freeport Harbor Channel generates 279,780 jobs and has a total economic output of $149 billion. With billions of dollars invested in infrastructure, Port Freeport continues to evolve and expand to provide accessibility, efficiency, and safety both to its tenants as well as for Brazoria County residents.
