Jacksonville's JAXPORT wins Kuwaiti-bound Auras from Alabama plant
CAR manufacturer American Honda Motor Co is to export its new Acura MDX and TLX models to the Middle East from the assembly plant in Lincoln, Alabama, via Florida's Port of Jacksonville.
JAXPORT tenant AMPORTS will handle the vehicle processing and the cars will be shipped via Hoegh Autoliners.
Kuwait will be the first market to receive the Acuras, reported American Journal of Transportation.
"This new business illustrates the confidence that American Honda has in JAXPORT and our service partners," said JAXPORT vice president Roy Schleicher.
Volumes of Hondas exported through JAXPORT topped 40,000 units last year, with vehicles going to the Middle East, Africa, South America and the Caribbean.
