Petroleum, orange-juice concentrate, aggregates and cement anchor the growing bulk business at Port Canaveral on Florida's Atlantic coast, alongside a Gulftainer-run container terminal rated at 200,000 TEU. The Canaveral Cargo Terminal, expanded from 20 to 30 acres, has moved more than 1.35 million tons since opening in 2015, with plans to triple capacity toward 750,000 TEU. Two Post-Panamax mobile harbour cranes and two berths work containers, while the port also handles breakbulk, roll-on/roll-off, project cargo and forest products, offering 128 reefer plugs expandable to 378. A channel depth of about 12.5 m suits Panamax tonnage. Cargo reaches Orlando and central Florida some 70 km inland via the SR 528 Beachline Expressway and a Florida East Coast rail link. Port Canaveral is also one of the busiest cruise ports in the world. Shippers needing larger container volumes typically use JAXPORT at Jacksonville, while Tampa is the alternative for pure bulk.
