Freedom Intermodal Tank Services has expanded its presence at the Port of New Orleans (Port NOLA) with the opening of a new bulk liquid packaging facility adjacent to its existing operations on France Road Parkway.
The company's new facility has direct access to Port NOLA, the New Orleans Public Belt Railroad (NOPB) and all six Class Is. The expansion reflects the growing demand for solutions that connect rail, truck and maritime transportation, Port NOLA officials said in a press release.
The new facility features Class A warehouse space with 38 outbound dock doors, covered truck and rail unloading, heating and blending capabilities, a 450-rail-car storage-in-transit yard, a dedicated trucking fleet and four acres of laydown yard and trailer parking.
Located 7 miles away from Port NOLA and 1 mile from Interstate 10, the site is positioned to serve customers moving freight by rail, truck, barge and vessel, Port NOLA officials said.
"Freedom Intermodal's investment highlights the value of the integrated logistics ecosystem we have built in New Orleans," said Tomeka Bryant, NOPB chief strategy officer and general manager. "NOPB's six-Class I railroad connectivity, combined with Port NOLA's global maritime reach and Louisiana’s strong industrial manufacturing sector, gives customers access to supply chain solutions that are difficult to replicate anywhere else in the country."
