Jaxport's economic impact honoured


The First Coast Manufacturers Association (FCMA) recently recognised Jaxport, Florida's leading container port based in Jacksonville, with the 2020 economic impact award during its annual excellence awards programme. The award recognises Jaxport as Northeast Florida’s economic engine, growing opportunities for area manufacturers by connecting their businesses to the global economy.

 

FCMA noted that the port’s growth has resulted in an increase in area port-related jobs and that the Jacksonville harbour deepening project will create new opportunities for Northeast Florida businesses.

 

Cargo activity through Jacksonville’s seaport supports 138,000 jobs in Florida and more than USD 31 billion in annual economic output for the region and state. (amh)
