Located at Port Everglades in South Florida, Florida International Terminal serves one of the world’s largest consumer markets. The facility handles both containerized and general cargo and benefits from direct access to major highway and rail networks, enabling efficient inland distribution and intermodal connectivity across the region.

The acquisition is consistent with the long-term growth strategy of Hanseatic Global Terminals, which has operated as an independent entity within Hapag-Lloyd since 2023. The company aims to expand its global terminal portfolio from 21 facilities today to approximately 30 by 2030, strengthening its position as a leading terminal and infrastructure operator.

Full ownership of FIT enhances Hanseatic’s operational control and strategic flexibility in the North American market, particularly in a key logistics hub such as Port Everglades. At the same time, AGUNSA’s exit reflects a broader industry trend of portfolio optimization among shipping and logistics players.

The value of the transaction has not been disclosed.
