JAXPORT now offers shippers the opportunity to move refrigerated cargoes from Jacksonville, Fla. to ports in Namibia, South Africa and Mozambique. The first vessel in the upgraded service arrived at JAXPORT’s Blount Island Marine Terminal today.
Galborg USA has provided carrier services between Jacksonville and Africa for 15 years. The company recently upgraded its vessel fleet and now offers up to 100 refrigerated units on each ship. The service calls at Walvis Bay, Namibia; Cape Town and Durban, South Africa; and Maputo, Mozambique.
Longtime JAXPORT tenant PORTUS, a container and heavy lift cargo terminal operator at Blount Island, handles the shipments, which also include containers, mining and construction equipment and used trucks.
