A.P. Moller-Maersk (Maersk) announced May 9 it has expanded its air freight operations with the activation of a full-service, in-transit air freight gateway in Miami.
The new gateway, modeled after operations in Atlanta, Chicago, and Los Angeles, will focus on transshipping European and Asian cargo via Miami to Latin America with competitive connectivity on freighter and passenger capacity. Maersk says it will support the North American export market to Latin America and the Asian market that serves the Latin American supply chain via cost competitive U.S. routes.
The 90,000 square foot facility is expected to have significant southward flows and offers key certifications, including, U.S. Customs bonded Container Freight Station (CFS) and Certified Cargo Screening Facility (CCSF).
Maersk’s air freight cargo coverage extends to 70,000 airport pairings across more than 90 countries around the world.
