    GT Podcast - TEUs, Tech, and Trade: The Port Everglades Advantage

    Logistically Speaking: GT Podcast What does it take to break records in TEUs, embrace cutting-edge technology, and stay competitive in a rapidly shifting global trade environment? In this episode of Logistically Speaking, host Eric Kleinsorge explores those very questions with Jorge Hernández, Director of Business Development at Port Everglades. Fresh off Global Trade Magazine’s Top 50 Power Port recognition and a top-20 U.S. container port ranking for 2025, Port Everglades is proving why it holds a distinct advantage in today’s logistics landscape. This conversation dives into the real drivers behind Port Everglades’ record-setting container volumes and sustained performance. Jorge Hernández explains how South Florida’s explosive population and economic growth are fueling demand, while strategic investments in port infrastructure, terminal capacity, and access improvements ensure the port delivers speed, reliability, and efficiency . Listeners gain insight into how TEUs are more than just a metric—they’re a reflection of disciplined planning, smart execution, and long-term vision. Technology and trade strategy take center stage as the discussion turns to public-private partnerships, Foreign Trade Zones, and the role ports play in future-proofing supply chains. From billion-dollar capital programs to maximizing limited land, Port Everglades balances innovation with practicality—always with an eye toward economic impact and customer value ⚙️. A timely lesson inspired by Henry Ford reinforces a powerful truth: progress comes from understanding real needs, not simply responding to surface requests. Whether you’re in logistics, global trade, economic development, or supply chain strategy, TEUs, Tech and Trade: The Port Everglades Advantage offers a behind-the-scenes look at how a modern port stays ahead—and why it matters.
