Aeroterm, a leading owner and developer of on-airport cargo facilities, announces the acquisition of two airport adjacent warehouses located at 1790-1820 Saint-François and 2600-2650 André in Dorval, Quebec. Located less than 10 minutes from Montréal – Trudeau International Airport and offering a combined total of 220,860 square feet across 13.38 acres, the warehouses are fully leased and have 24 loading positions.

“These two facilities are 100 percent leased in a supplied constrained market making them excellent additions to our portfolio,” said David Rose, Managing Director & Fund Manager, Aeroterm. “The properties have a unique combination of loading positions, ample parking and exterior storage making both facilities desirable for distribution tenants.”

Montréal has one of the tightest industrial markets in North America with a vacancy rate of 1.2 percent and at the airport there is no industrial space available. In addition to their excellent airport proximity 1790-1820 Saint-François and 2600-2650 André are located just 23 minutes west of downtown Montréal, with immediate access to the Trans-Canada Highway and Autoroute 13.

“Montréal – Trudeau International Airport received 124,424 tons of belly cargo in 2019, a five percent increase from 2018, and that number is expected to increase dramatically in the coming years,” said Alexi Lachambre, Vice President of Development, Aeroterm. “With almost no vacancies for industrial space at the airport or in the greater Montréal region, these acquisitions are valuable additions to our portfolio.”

Highlights of 1820 Saint-François and 2600-2650 André include:
• Square feet: 220,860 SF
• Land area: 13.38 acres
• Loading positions: 24
• Access: Montréal – Trudeau International Airport, Trans-Canada Highway and Autoroute 13

Women hold only 12% of transportation and storage jobs worldwide

Women are significantly underrepresented in the global transport sector workforce, comprising only 12% of transportation and storage workers worldwide as they face hurdles such as unfavorable workplace policies and significant gender gaps in operational, technical and leadership roles, a study from the World Bank Group shows.

This underrepresentation limits diverse perspectives in service design and decision-making, negatively affects businesses and undermines economic growth, according to the report, “Addressing Barriers to Women’s Participation in Transport.” The paper—which covers global trends and provides in-depth analysis of the women’s role in the transport sector in Europe and Central Asia (ECA) and Middle East and North Africa (MENA)—was prepared jointly by the World Bank Group, the Asian Development Bank (ADB), the German Agency for International Cooperation (GIZ), the European Investment Bank (EIB), and the International Transport Forum (ITF).

How clever is that chatbot?

Oh, you work in logistics, too? Then you’ve probably met my friends Truedi, Lumi, and Roger.

No, you haven’t swapped business cards with those guys or eaten appetizers together at a trade-show social hour. But the chances are good that you’ve had conversations with them. That’s because they’re the online chatbots “employed” by three companies operating in the supply chain arena—TrueCommerce, Blue Yonder, and Truckstop. And there’s more where they came from. A number of other logistics-focused companies—like ChargePoint, Packsize, FedEx, and Inspectorio—have also jumped in the game.

Experts: U.S. companies need strategies to pay costs of Trump tariffs

With the hourglass dwindling before steep tariffs threatened by the new Trump Administration will impose new taxes on U.S. companies importing goods from abroad, organizations need to deploy strategies to handle those spiraling costs.

American companies with far-flung supply chains have been hanging for weeks in a “wait-and-see” situation to learn if they will have to pay increased fees to U.S. Customs and Border Enforcement agents for every container they import from certain nations. After paying those levies, companies face the stark choice of either cutting their own profit margins or passing the increased cost on to U.S. consumers in the form of higher prices.

J.B. Hunt launches solar farm to power its three HQ buildings

Supply chain solution provider J.B. Hunt Transport Services Inc. has launched a large-scale solar facility that will generate enough electricity to offset up to 80% of the power used by its three main corporate campus buildings in Lowell, Arkansas.

The 40-acre solar facility in Gentry, Arkansas, includes nearly 18,000 solar panels and 10,000-plus bi-facial solar modules to capture sunlight, which is then converted to electricity and transmitted to a nearby electric grid for Carroll County Electric. The facility will produce approximately 9.3M kWh annually and utilize net metering, which helps transfer surplus power onto the power grid.
