Mobile was founded in 1702 by the French as the first capital of French Louisiana. It later became a Spanish colony before eventually being ceded to the United States in 1813. The city has a deep connection to freight transportation, as it is home to one of the largest ports in the United States.

It is strategically located along the Gulf of Mexico, providing easy access to markets in the Americas, Europe, and Asia. The port plays a vital role in the region's economy, supporting thousands of jobs and contributing billions of dollars in economic impact each year.
