Port Tampa Bay is by far Florida's largest port, handling over 37 million tons of cargo a year. The port is also Florida's largest port in terms of physical size (and one of the largest in the US) encompassing over 2,000 hectares.

In addition to being one of the world's premier fertilizer export ports, Tampa is home to several globally successful exporters, such as Amalie Oil (manufacturer of specialty engine oils exporting to over 100 countries) and Tampa Tank/Florida Structural Steel (manufacturer of bridges, petroleum storage tanks and specialized steel structures with a focus on Latin American exports, as well as domestic markets).
