- JAXPORT honored with Logistics Management 2024 “Quest for Quality” award
The Jacksonville Port Authority (JAXPORT) has been recognized with a “Quest for Quality Award” by subscribers of Logistics Management magazine.
The Quest for Quality Awards, now in their 41st year, serve as a benchmark for excellence in the transportation and logistics sector. The awards are based on a comprehensive six-month research project conducted by Peerless Research Group (PRG), with input from qualified shippers who utilize the services of seaports, ocean carriers and logistics providers globally.
For the ports category, Logistics Management readers graded seaports on their performance in five categories, including:
- ease of doing business
- value
- ocean carrier network
- intermodal network
- equipment and operations
Subscribers to Logistics Management magazine represent the top cargo decision-makers in the transportation and logistics industry and have repeatedly acknowledged JAXPORT’s excellence. The port has previously been named a Quest for Quality winner in 2022, 2019 and 2016, further cementing its reputation as a leader in customer service and operational efficiency.
“This recognition is due to the hard work of our entire port community, and it’s another testament to Jacksonville’s status as America’s Logistics Center,” said JAXPORT CEO Eric Green. “At JAXPORT, we remain steadfast in our commitment to providing top-tier service and operational excellence for our cargo partners.”
