Trailer Bridge
Trailer Bridge, Inc. is a freight service company headquartered in Jacksonville, Florida, that offers international and domestic shipping with primary international calls to San Juan, Puerto Rico and Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic. 〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.trailerbridge.com/About-Us-Narrative.aspx )〕 It is one of the few companies offering 53-foot containers, which offer up to 40% more cubic capacity than other container sizes.
==History==
Trailer Bridge was founded in 1991 by Malcom McLean, who is recognized in the industry as "The Father of Containerization". McLean had previously started McLean Trucking Company in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, which he built into one of the largest trucking companies in the United States. He saw the need for a service that could, in the words of the company, provide "true single-carrier responsibility across the United States and on to Puerto Rico".〔(Company profile )〕 In April 1991, McLean founded Trailer Bridge, and in the following February, Trailer Bridge made its first shipment from Jacksonville, Florida, to San Juan, Puerto Rico.
In 1997, Trailer Bridge went public on NASDAQ and moved its headquarters to Jacksonville. Over the years, it expanded its fleet and capacity, and in 2000, it unveiled its shipment tracking tool. In 2004, Trailer Bridge purchased all of Kadampanattu Corporation's stock, thus gaining two 736-foot, triple-deck, ro/ro barges.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.trailerbridge.com/History.aspx )〕 In 2010, Trailer began offering weekly service to and from Jacksonville and Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic. In 2012, Trailer Bridge celebrated the 20th anniversary of its inaugural voyage and five years of service to Puerto Plata, DR, and also reached its one millionth customer booking, established TB Logistics, and added more containers, making it one of the world's largest fleets.
