Governor Ron DeSantis and the CEO of the Florida Ports Council Michael Rubin extended an invitation to those languishing ships to travel southeast and fill their ports—Florida is not only ready, but able to handle the off loading and the distribution of goods across the country.
The WTVY report continues:
So, Florida is putting out the word to shipping companies that ports in the Sunshine State are open and ready for business.
“Florida is where your success comes in, and our seaports are the solution to ensure the cargo shipping logjam doesn’t become the Grinch that stole Christmas,” said Michael Rubin, President and CEO of the Florida Ports Council.
Yet another example of DeSantis showing what leadership is through concrete action, rather than talking about what leadership should look like.
A lot of supermarket chains in Florida obtain their foods sources from Florida farmers too as well as the southeast US and other States in America.
Becoming more independent and self reliant is the key moving forward.
