Word is getting out about the efficiency of America's Most Modern Gateway! 👉 "The port’s performance during the last few years explains much of the momentum." 👉"Offering arguably some of the best rail access to Chicago, Virginia has been the second-fastest growing US port in the last five years." 👉 "The volume growth follows billions of dollars of supporting highway investment and now $1.4 billion in infrastructure projects, including $450 million for deepening and widening Norfolk’s main shipping channel. " 👉"1.7 million square feet of cross-dock capacity has sprung up around the port in the last two years, a mark of both the volume growth and the deepening of shippers’ supply chains through Virginia..." 👉 "Far more warehousing and distribution space serving the port is coming."

Before Baltimore’s Francis Scott Key Bridge collapsed in late March, the Port of Baltimore was one of the fastest-growing major ports in the country. In fact, it was the only major U.S. port to see its container volume increase in 2023, while nationally port activity settled down and returned to a pre-pandemic brline. On the real estate side, the Baltimore region has 207 million square feet of industrial space, with 1.5 million square feet in the pipeline. The market registered an 8.3 percent vacancy rate at year-end 2023, making it one of the more tenant-friendly markets in the fairly tight industrial space. #cre #logistics #port #warehouse https://commerchttps://lnkd.in/edWma26T

In a race to lure jumbo cargo ships up the Mississippi River, Plaquemines Port Harbor and Terminal District has signed a preliminary deal with APM Terminals to build a 900-acre container terminal about 20 miles south of the Port of New Orleans. Under terms of the agreement, Plaquemines Port will lease the land to APM Terminals for at least 30 years. The initial construction phase will begin with a 200-acre development that includes a container terminal with on-dock railing and a berth capable of handling ships that carry 14,000 twenty-foot equivalent units. The land is on the west bank of Plaquemines Parish, Louisiana, about 50 nautical miles from the mouth of the Mississippi, where the river meets the Gulf of Mexico. The agreement includes options to expand the terminal and other logistics activities up to 900 acres. “In time, this greenfield site has all the potential to evolve into one of the big ship gateways into the U.S.,” Wim Lagaay, APM’s senior investment advisor to the CEO, said in a recent news release. “This venture allows us to build from the ground up, integrating cutting-edge technologies and sustainable practices to create a modern logistics hub that prioritizes safety, efficiency, and productivity.” By Noi Mahoney   #transportes #aduanas #transportación #customs #customsrequirements #logistics #supplychain #logística #freight #logisticsnews #customsnews
