World Trade Center Savannah has applied to expand the area served by Foreign-Trade Zone 104, said a notice from the FTZ Board. The zone currently has a service area that includes Bulloch, Bryan, Chatham, Effingham, Evans, Liberty, Long, Screven, Columbia and Richmond Counties, Georgia. Under the expansion, it would also cover Burke, Candler, Emanuel, Jefferson, Jenkins, Johnson, Laurens, Montgomery, Tattnall, Telfair, Toombs, Treutlen, Washington and Wheeler Counties, Georgia. If approved, the zone’s grantee would be able to serve sites throughout the expanded service area based on companies’ needs for FTZ designation, said the FTZB. Comments are due by April 11.
