3 Importers, exporters finding logistics advantages in Jacksonville By Paul Scott Abbott Thanks to its unique ability to serve as a hub for inbound and outbound cargo and for distribution of goods throughout the U.S. Southeast and beyond, it is little wonder that Jacksonville is developing a burgeoning reputation as America s Logistics Center. With increasing east-west ocean services augmenting longstanding north-south capabilities, JAXPORT and its new state-of-the-industry container terminals are strategically positioned at the crossroads of global commerce. And, just as importantly, goods efficiently and cost-effectively move in and out of Jacksonville via multiple highway and rail options. JAXPORT and Jacksonville are increasingly top of mind for shippers as word spreads of the efficiencies we offer, said JAXPORT Chief Executive Officer Paul Anderson. We are relentlessly sending this message of shifting opportunity to potential business partners around the world and to our political leaders in this country, who are also awakening to the inevitability of investing in our future. Leather goods leader Coach Inc. has been sold on the advantages of Jacksonville since 1995, when the firm opened its original 300,000-square-foot distribution center in Jacksonville, and the company s top logistics professional believes the area and its port offer still more benefits today. Jim Prior, Coach s Divisional Vice President for Transportation and Trade Compliance, noted that Coach now has 850,000 square feet of distribution Paul Anderson, JAXPORT CEO Continues Continues next on page next page JAXPORT 2011 Magazine 9

4 JAXPORT served by 30-plus ocean carriers JAXPORT facilities are served by more than 30 steamship lines, combining to offer services throughout Asia, Australia, Middle East, Mediterranean, Europe, Africa, South America, Central America and Mexico, and Caribbean, including Puerto Rico. Ocean carriers serving JAXPORT include: Abou Merhi Lines Aliança Lines Inc. American Roll-On Roll-Off Carrier (ARC) APL Atlantic Container Line (ACL) CMA CGM COSCO Crowley Liner Service CSAV Eukor Frontier Liner Services Great American Lines (GALI) Grieg Star Shipping Gulf Africa Line Hamburg Süd N.A. Hanjin Shipping HMM Hoegh Autoliners Horizon Lines K-Line Liberty Global Mediterranean Shipping (MSC) Mitsui O.S.K. Lines MOL (America) Inc. Nordana Line NYK Line (NA) Inc. SeaFreight Line Sea Star Line Spliethoff Trailer Bridge Wallenius Wilhelmsen Lines Yang Ming facilities in Jacksonville, serving stores throughout the United States and Canada. Prior pointed to the 2008 introduction of MOL s Asian service into Jacksonville as a key development, saying, We took advantage of the very first ship, and we ve probably had containers on the service every week since. MOL s 158-acre TraPac Container Terminal is to soon be joined at JAXPORT s Dames Point Marine Terminal by another leading edge container terminal, to serve ships of Hanjin Shipping Co. Ltd. and its alliance partners. Prior said he is impressed by the very easy out and in access between Dames Point docks and Coach s distribution center, about 15 to 20 minutes away; excellent JAXPORT security; quick availability of containers at the port; and competitive trucking rates. Not only is Jacksonville within an eight-hour drive of 55 million consumers, it also gives Coach three-day delivery to stores in California with two-driver teams of truckload carriers. Michaels Stores Inc., North America s No. 1 arts and crafts retailer, uses more than 500,000 square feet of Jacksonville distribution facilities to serve its stores throughout the Southeast, as far north as the District of Columbia and west to Louisiana, according to Rich Markovich, Michaels Director of International Logistics and Compliance. We made the strategic move to consolidate operations into Jacksonville as the port has developed greater inbound capability from Asia, Markovich said. A real point of strength is the workforce in the Jacksonville area on top of the dynamics that make Jacksonville a very attractive place when it comes to domestic transportation. Mike Bauer, North American Logistics Manager for UPM, the world s leading manufacturer of graphic paper products, cited favorable backhaul intermodal and trucking rates and Jim Prior, Divisional Vice rail options offered by CSX President for Transportation and Transportation and Norfolk Trade Compliance, Coach Southern Railway among attributes that make Jacksonville ideal for serving the Southeast, as well as more competitive for serving Midwest customers than mid-atlantic ports. UPM annually brings some 500,000 tons of graphic papers from Finland via Spliethoff vessels into Jacksonville s port and the distribution facilities of Jacksonville-based Seaonus. I think Seaonus and JAXPORT have been excellent partners with UPM, Bauer said. We like to think we have a competitive advantage Continues on page JAXPORT 2011 Magazine

5 and that our supply chain is one of our best selling points. Seaonus Vice President for Business Development and Customer Relations Rick Sharp said his firm, which operates about 330,000 square feet of multi-temperature facilities and 720,000 square feet of dry warehouse space in Jacksonville, is looking to leverage Jacksonville s advantages to link Rick Sharp, Seaonus Vice President for Business Development and Customer Relation markets from Latin America to Europe with the U.S. Midwest in addition to the Southeast. Seaonus is partnering with CSX in an initiative to offer 56-hour transit time between Jacksonville and the Chicago area. By mid-2012, Seaonus hopes to make this link via a distribution facility the company is building in Kingsbury, Ind., about 40 miles southeast of Chicago. In addition to bringing imports into the Midwest, this effort should facilitate outbound shipments of poultry, pork, beef and other commodities from the Midwest to Puerto Rico and non-u.s. Caribbean markets via Jacksonville s Raul Alfonso, port. JAXPORT Senior Director, Trade Development & Global For our growing customer Marketing base, the ability to formulate a cost-saving strategy, leveraging different products of their supply chains, represents new efficiencies that fit today s economic demands, said Raul Alfonso, Senior A Leading Container Terminal Operator And Vessel Stevedore TraPac TraPac Container Terminal at Dames Point At the new TraPac Container Terminal, two 1,200-foot berths line a 158-acre facility used by Tokyo-based shipping line MOL and its terminal operating partner, TraPac, to load and unload container ships sailing to and from ports in and around the world.

6 Director, Trade Development and Global Marketing. Simply said, they can do more with less and such rationalization is setting a new shift to the pace of logistics around JAXPORT. Carriers are also taking note of Jacksonville s cost efficient logistical connections. JAXPORT has proven to be critical not only for exports but also import cargo, especially with our new, direct, fiveday transit from Puerto Limon, Costa Rica, said David G. Ross, Executive Vice President of Miami-based SeaFreight Agencies (USA) Inc. This service places imported fruit at the doorstep of many of the major distribution centers in the Southeast. Another longtime player in the Jacksonville distribution arena, PenserSC, which started at the Port of Jacksonville in 1908 as Peninsular Warehouse, now controls more than 1 million feet of Jacksonville facilities. Shawn Barnett, PenserSC s Chief Executive Officer, said Jacksonville offers superior Shawn Barnett, PenserSC s Chief distribution rates, better infrastructure, an excellent Executive Officer port with great growth potential and a central geographic location. There are a lot of reasons why Jacksonville provides a good logistical atmosphere, Barnett said. Logistically speaking, it is an exciting distribution node. Most recently, nationwide third-party logistics provider Saddle Creek Corp. opened in August a Roy Schleicher, JAXPORT 375,000-square-foot, multicustomer distribution center near the Port of Jacksonville. Executive Vice President JAXPORT Executive Vice President Roy Schleicher said, The distribution segment of the industry is forging forward in Jacksonville because of our location, a growing population and the new services that we offer to our customers. Our new east-west trade capabilities can connect very nicely with our north-south trade and establish new relationships and partnerships for the future. The abundance of third-party logistics companies and warehouse capacity in this area truly makes Jacksonville America s Logistics Center.
