In his new role, Rogers will be tasked with development and leasing BREG’s 2,600-acre dual-rail served Savannah Gateway Industrial Hub (SGIH). Savannah is one of the nation’s top growth markets for industrial space. In 2023 alone, nearly 13 million square feet of industrial space was absorbed in the local market.

“Scott is a highly skilled industrial professional who has tremendous market knowledge and trusted relationships with state and local leaders,” said Broe Real Estate Group CEO Douglas Wells. “As global supply chains and domestic population centers continue to shift to the southeast, The Port of Savannah offers unparalleled opportunity. Scott’s expanded responsibilities will help us deliver the needed Class A industrial product within our master planned park to meet the sustained market demand.”

With dual-rail service from CSX and Norfolk Southern, SGIH has the capacity for 18 million square feet of industrial warehousing, distribution, and manufacturing operations. In his new role, Rogers will continue the park’s build out while expanding Broe Real Estate Group’s existing market presence.

“The Port of Savannah is a critical link for global supply chains and the demand for east coast multi-modal industrial sites in Savannah is at an all-time high,” said Scott Rogers. “Savannah Gateway Industrial Hub provides a proven logistical advantage for our tenants due to our close proximity the Port of Savannah and the new Hyundai Motor Group Metaplant America.   Interest in the park and the port has never been higher.”
