STRATEGIC Business Location Tucked away in the westernmost point of the East Coast, Jacksonville is the
least likely place on the Atlantic or Gulf Coasts to experience a hurricane.
Due to a “recurvature effect,” storms heading toward Jacksonville are influenced
by the Bermuda high pressure system from the west and are driven northward.
After investing more than $300 million to construct and expand the
terminal and its two concourses, JAX is now one of the most
modern airports in the world.
With multiple cargo terminals capable of handling container,
automobile, bulk, breakbulk and refrigerated cargoes,
JAXPORT is a premier diversified port with connections to major trade lanes
throughout the world.
Jacksonville boasts a strong
