Located at mile 849 on the Mississippi River between St. Louis and Memphis, the Pemiscot County Port offers access to every mode of transportation. Pemiscot County Port is located between two interstate highway systems. I-55 is the first north-south artery to intersect each of the east-west interstate highways west of the Mississippi River.  Completion of the I-155 bridge between Caruthersville and Dyersburg, TN in 1976 established Pemiscot County as a complete intermodal transportation interchange providing direct linkage to all parts of the country.  A public dock, fleeting service and building sites are available at the year-round, ice-free slack-water harbor.  Enterprise Zone benefits are available to all tenants.  Two International airports are located with an easy interstate drive to St. Louis or Memphis.  The Blytheville-Gosnell Airport Authority is only 25 miles away in Blytheville, AR.
