AGP and the Port of Grays Harbor celebrated the grand opening of Terminal 4 on July 31, 2026, completing a project that expands agricultural export capacity at the West Coast port. The facility includes a ship loader, expanded storage, and rail infrastructure, allowing AGP to more than double annual agricultural exports. The Port contributed $60 million for rail, fendering, and stormwater systems, adding 30 acres of cargo space. AGP Chairman Dean Thernes stated the facility supports global demand for U. S. agricultural products, particularly in Southeast Asia. The project follows AGP's first vessel load at the port in 2003 and enhances Grays Harbor's role in the export network, with no further details on future operational timelines provided.
