Florida International Terminal proceeds with investment plan at Port Everglades

Florida International Terminal (FIT) is advancing its US$25 million investment plan through 2026, following the renewal of its Port Everglades concession until 2035.

In 2024, FIT made significant strides in innovation and operational efficiency to enhance its services.

The investment includes cutting-edge container handling equipment from Taylor Machine Works and advanced accident prevention technology from Strata Worldwide. These upgrades aim to boost efficiency and safety, reinforcing FIT’s commitment to supporting foreign trade.

Key achievements of the year include the arrival of four Super Post Panamax cranes, the addition of new vessel services from Ocean Network Express (ONE), COSCO, CMA CGM, and Maersk Line, and the successful implementation of the Advent eModal system to optimize container scheduling.

In 2024, FIT handled 332,262 TEUs, processed 2.8 million tons of cargo, and served 510 vessels, further strengthening its role in the region’s logistics network.
