M/V Miranda: A Frequent Visitor to Brunswick! ?? For years, M/V Miranda has been a regular at Brunswick, GA, loading grain with precision and efficiency. With an LOA of just 100.62m (330ft), she completes loading in a swift 12 hours before setting sail again. As agents, that short window is our challenge—ensuring all husbandry needs are met before she departs, often not returning for another 3-4 weeks. ? At Host Agency, we know that exceptional service starts with strong relationships and clear communication. That’s how our Savannah office keeps operations seamless, proving every day that we are committed to our core values—turning port inefficiencies into tangible profit for our principals. ?? #ShippingExcellence #PortOperations #BrunswickGA #MaritimeLogistics #EfficientOperations #HOST #HOSTProud #HostAgency

The material is strategically stored 500 meters from the pier, where it will be efficiently loaded using ship’s cranes and shore grabs. It was a fantastic visit, and we’re excited to support seamless logistics and storage solutions for our customers.?? Need help with storage or material handling? We’ve got you covered!
