Charlevoix is a single-commodity bulk port: cement, shipped out almost entirely by water. The lakeside St. Marys Cement plant moves roughly 1.5 million tonnes a year onto the Great Lakes via self-unloading cement carriers and barges. The working harbour sits on Round Lake, linked to Lake Michigan by a narrow channel, and a depth of about 4.9 m caps vessel size. Containers and conventional breakbulk are not handled here; alongside the cement trade the harbour serves marinas and the ferry to Beaver Island. Onward distribution runs by road and rail. For a comparable Great Lakes cement port, Alpena on Lake Huron fits the profile, while containers can only reach the region overland via major hubs.
