Railex To Open Temperature-Controlled Multimodal-3PL Services Logistics Facility In Jacksonville, Florida

05/07/2014
In June, Railex, a leader in cold chain transportation and logistics, will expand its national footprint with the opening of temperature-controlled multimodal and 3PL services in Jacksonville, Florida.

The company said “opening of its Southeast services, along with its facilities in Delano, California; Wallula, Washington; and Schenectady, New York, gives Railex nationwide reach, significantly increasing shipping options and forward positioning of inventory for its customers. This offers West Coast shippers a year-round, uninterrupted expedited shipping solution into the once under-served Southeast. Likewise, growers and shippers from the Southeast can soon readily move product to the West Coast.”

"Our goal is to change the landscape of perishables transport in the United States." says Adrian Neuhauser, Railex's President, "The launch of our Jacksonville services along with Railex's forward distribution options, greatly expands our national influence and gives our customers significant shipping advantages."

In June 2014, Railex said it will begin offering expedited service to the Southeast, with routes from California and Washington into Florida multiple times weekly, every week of the year.

“Only Railex gives customers the exclusive ability to combine loads from separate West Coast origins. That, along with Railex's container consolidation and deconsolidation services, brings a new opportunity to U.S. importers to move perishable goods from coast-to-coast,” the company said.
