About The Port
The Port of Olympia has a proud history in Thurston County. It serves the community in a wide variety of ways, leading the way for many of the area's economic development efforts.
From the commercial center at NewMarket Industrial Campus to the diversified specialty marine terminal, from the vibrant Swantown Marina & Boatworks to the strategically located Olympia Regional Airport, the Port of Olympia is committed to fostering economic growth of the South Puget Sound region and serving the needs of global customers.
Essentially one business with four divisions, the Port promotes economic development through its business operations and economic development tools, such as its four-county Foreign-Trade Zone. Land and infrastructure improvements are provided to encourage business development, and some areas, such as the Port Plaza, are earmarked for recreation and public access.
