Railex, a provider of cold chain transportation and logistics, will expand its national footprint with the opening of its temperature-controlled multimodal and third-party logistics (3PL) services in Jacksonville FL starting in June 2014.
The opening of its Southeast services—along with its facilities in Delano CA; Wallula WA; and Schenectady NY—gives Railex nationwide reach, increasing shipping options and forward positioning of inventory for customers. This offers West Coast shippers a year-round, uninterrupted expedited shipping service into the once-underserved Southeast. Likewise, growers and shippers from the Southeast can soon readily move product to the West Coast.
In June 2014, Railex will begin offering expedited service to the Southeast, with routes from California and Washington into Florida multiple times weekly, every week of the year. Railex gives customers the ability to combine loads from separate West Coast origins. That, along with Railex’s container consolidation and deconsolidation services, brings a new opportunity to US importers to move perishable goods from coast-to-coast. Railex also offers a suite of additional 3PL services, including five days of free storage, long-term storage solutions, real-time inventory control, freight forwarding, and just-in-time delivery. All of these services are available and can be coordinated with Railex in one phone call, savings time and ensuring care, custody, and control of product throughout the supply chain.
