Port of Oswego Authority

The Port of Oswego Authority runs the Port of Oswego, the first U.S. port of call and deepwater port on the Great Lakes when ships arrive from the St. Lawrence Seaway. The port sits on Lake Ontario, on the route to the interior of North America.

It is accessible from any international port in the world, and its position puts it less than 350 miles from 60 million people. Stretch that to 750 miles, and it reaches half of the U.S. and Canadian population, along with their businesses and manufacturing facilities.
