The addition of direct Asia container services in the last few years and more recently new and expanded services with Mexico, Central America and South America have provided a giant leap forward in serving Florida’s largest and fastest-growing market, the Tampa/Orlando Corridor at the intersection of I-4 and I-75.This Central Florida region is also one of the hottest industrial real estate markets in the country and Florida’s hub for distribution, logistics, and manufacturing. The I-4 and I-75 Corridor is home to the largest concentration of distribution centers in the State, which allows for multiple round trip deliveries per day from Port Tampa Bay, compared to the traditional routes via congested out-of-state ports.
