Property Description
LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION!
This exceptional 1,337-acre tract lies directly north and on the upper northwestern edge of the Port Bienville Industrial Complex along Mulatto Bayou (opposite the port side) in Pearlington, Mississippi. Dominated by lush evergreen forest, the property offers a rare opportunity for industrial expansion in one of the Gulf Coast's most strategically positioned logistics corridors.
ECONOMIC ADVANTAGE
Now is the time to invest in Mississippi's thriving economy, which saw a robust 4.2% GDP growth in 2024. With state legislation beginning in 2025 to phase out income tax over the next five years, the financial incentives for development and investment are stronger than ever.

Three parcels lie within the 125,000-acre buffer zone surrounding NASA's Stennis Space Center, where habitable structures are restricted. This ensures minimal population density, no noise ordinances, and zero traffic congestion — making it ideal for industrial operations requiring privacy, scale, and uninterrupted logistics.

• Logistics and freight forwarding
• Warehousing and distribution
• Commercial fill operations
