The Port of Slidell strategically connects the U.S. Gulf Coast’s waterways, rail, and air infrastructure at the junction of three major interstates—I-10, I-12, and I-59—serving the greater New Orleans area and the broader U.S. Gulf Coast region.

From Houston to Jacksonville—from Jackson and Hattiesburg—from New Orleans—all commerce meets in Slidell.

The Port of Slidell affords business and industry traversing the greater Gulf South, a centrally located waterfront base of operations just 20 minutes from downtown New Orleans. Marine-related construction and service companies seeking to locate business operations to the greater New Orleans/Gulf Coast region will find unequaled opportunity in a safe and business-friendly environment that offers extreme ease of use… and our Cajun food is second to none.

When the Port of Slidell recently celebrated its 30th year in operation, it marked this unique venue’s importance as a major intermodal hub of operations for marine-related companies doing business in the Gulf South. We are pleased to serve as a base of operations for such global construction giants as American Bridge and Safe Haven Enterprises. “The Port of Slidell is perfect for our construction projects, and it has already greatly reduced the cost and improved the efficiencies and ease with which we do business,” says Safe Haven Enterprises, President Alta Baker.
