    JAXPORT, or the Port of Jacksonville, has achieved record 23 per cent container volume growth to 1.2 million TEU during the fiscal year ending September, after setting box throughput records for the last three years.

    The Asian container trade continues to show significant growth, achieving 12 per cent growth in the past year, with nearly 429,000 Asian containers moved. 

    JAXPORT's Asian trade has grown an average of 14 per cent annually over the past five years. The port continues to add new service and capacity and the federal project to deepen the Jacksonville shipping channel to 47 feet to accommodate even more cargo aboard the largest ships is now well underway.

    JAXPORT remains one of the nation's busiest vehicle handling ports, moving more than 665,000 units in FY2018. JAXPORT offers service from three major auto processors, AMPORTS, Wallenius Wilhelmsen Solutions and Southeast Toyota Distributors, and a project to expand the port's vehicle-handling capacity by more than 25 per cent began construction earlier this year.
