Gov. Brian Kemp announced Thursday that the state has again made history by surpassing $60.2 billion in exports in calendar year 2025, and is now among the top 10 exporting state in the country.
This is a year-over-year increase of 12.7%, outperforming the national average of 5.6%. With goods going to 213 unique countries and territories, Georgia also ranked No. 7 for dollar value of total trade and No. 9 in the country for dollar value of exports. The last time Georgia was in the top ten exporting states was 2020. Thanks to an expanding and reliable logistics network and workforce, Georgia companies have increased exports over the past decade by 68.9% despite the disruptions of the pandemic six years ago.
“Georgia has broken export records for five consecutive years, and these incredible numbers are just the latest testament to our great logistics industry and the thousands of small businesses across our state who have shown the entire world the value of a Georgia-made product,” Kemp said. “With our coastal and inland ports continuing to grow capacity while we make key investments in other logistics infrastructure, Georgia is well positioned to break even more trade records in the years to come.”
Civilian aircraft and ancillary parts remained the state’s No. 1 export category, followed by computers, hardware, and storage units; motor vehicles; network communications equipment; and medical devices. Canada, Mexico, Singapore, Germany, and the Netherlands were the top destinations for Georgia exports.
