Local shipments in Florida highly requested by the Oil & Gas industry
In 2020, Florida was forecasted to move 252.52 million dollars of intra-Florida freight according to the FHWF (Federal Highway Administration). These lanes are mainly consumed by a few specific industries. In Florida, Oil & Gas is number 1 shipper. The forecasted revenue accumulated by Oil & Gas in shipping costs on intra-Florida lanes is 50.5 million dollars per year. However, this is just 20% of the total revenue made off of local FL shipping lanes. There are other industries, like Chemicals which represent 12.55%, this is followed by Food and Kindred Products with 10.12%.
To gain a better understanding of the shipping patterns between states, Florida's main partners are Georgia, Texas & North Carolina. However, these states generate a lower total revenue shipping across state lines vs. intra-Florida shipping.
