The chairman of the Florida Ports Council says no ports in South Florida are experiencing delays due to supply chain issues, unlike other ports in the US.
Leaders of ports along South Florida’s coast said they’re ready to step up and help other ports around the country, as those other ports continue to experience delays and backlogs due to global supply chain issues.
PortMiami set a new record-breaking year in collaboration with its partners.
