The following resource has been developed by the Georgia Ports Authority in conjunction with the Georgia Economic Developers Association (GEDA) as a reference tool for those individuals interested in locating or expanding business operations in the State of Georgia, as well as for those involved in the field of economic development in Georgia. The purpose of the directory is to identify a comprehensive listing of statewide agencies and organizations that can provide economic and industrial development assistance to meet your company’s specialized needs. Every effort has been made to provide complete and accurate information for the listings provided. In some cases, hotlinks are not currently possible; however, direct telephone numbers have been supplied.
