Northeast Florida has long been considered a transportation and logistics center. With its access to water and strategic position in the Southeast, Jacksonville is a critical path in the global supply chain, which is why so many transportation and logistics companies have a presence here.
The Jacksonville region is also developing talent needed for transportation companies. With industry-related career academies in many of our K-12 school districts and programs offered at Florida State College of Jacksonville, University of North Florida, and Keiser University, the region’s educational institutions are building skilled supply chain professionals. The positive impact of these programs is both immediate and far-reaching.
