Jim Rothlin, executive director for the Port of Chehalis, spoke before city councilors and the gathered public at Monday’s city council meeting to provide details on the Port of Chehalis’ growth and discussion on the potential for a port in Winlock.
A Winlock Port District Creation Question was on the November 8, 2011 ballot in the designated area of Lewis County.
This measure was defeated
This measure sought to create the Winlock port district area encompassing the same area as the Winlock school district area. If approved, three port commissioners would also be elected.[2]
We opened Port of Winlock™ in 2018 We own all tradenames and domains for Port of Winlock™ The business model started off as a portal for the local business entrepreneurs to showcase their wares.

Lowe's Distribution Center Open in the Winlock Industrial Park; Employs 116 People and Serves 30 Stores
Penske Logistics, in partnership with Lowe's Home Improvement, has officially opened a new 1.2 million square foot distribution facility in Winlock's industrial park.
At the time of the facility's grand opening on Friday, the facility had 116 total employees and was serving 30 Lowe's stores, with plans to expand service to 63 stores by the end of 2022.
Winlock has been identified as a major growth opportunity in the county, with its industrial park slated to host a Lowe’s distribution facility, and an Old Apostolic Lutheran Church under construction expected to draw in upwards of 50 families.

Since then, there’s been a recession and plenty of anti-growth sentiment from residents of the South Lewis County city. Winlock’s Urban Growth Area (UGA) — a designation under the Growth Management Act that allows zoning changes so cities can expand — that stretches to I-5, covering parcels where the Mickelsen Dairy used to stand, has remained largely dormant for decades.
Current Mayor Brandon Svenson is picking up where Meyers left off.
