Florida Freight And The Supply Chain Economy

Counting shipments that start, end or stay in Florida, the Freight Analysis Framework estimates 898.3 million tons of freight worth $1.39 trillion moved in 2024. That ranks Florida eighth of 51 by value and seventh by weight, and 74.1% of its tonnage never leaves the state.

By value, mixed freight and electronics lead Florida’s freight. By weight, Florida moves mostly gravel and natural sands. In Florida, trucks carry 78.3% of the tons, pipelines 8.1% and rail 6.3%.

Florida’s largest domestic trading partner is Georgia ($95.2 billion, both directions), then California and Texas. Florida exported $77.9 billion of freight, mostly to Rest of Americas, and imported $110.7 billion, mostly from Europe. The framework forecasts Florida’s tonnage to grow 47.5% by 2050 and its real value 99.4%.

The five largest commodities by value in Florida freight, 2024
