Doing business in Hickman

Hickman is the Fulton County seat and home to the Hickman–Fulton County Riverport, the only Kentucky riverport on the Mississippi. Fertilizer, grain, steel and general cargo move through the harbor by barge, rail and truck, and farming has shaped Fulton County’s economy for generations. The Old Hickman Historic District and the Fulton County Courthouse anchor the town.

In a small town, most customers already know you. A website and Google profile help with everyone else: people from Union City, Fulton and Clinton, travelers using the ferry, and newcomers checking hours and directions on their phones. Simple, accurate information goes a long way here.
