“Our goal when opening a new location is to find the right talent first because we believe our people are the foundation of our success,” said Trailer Bridge CEO Mitch Luciano. “Brad embodies a heart of service which is the very foundation of our culture and what I know to be a differentiator in how we show up for customers.”

Trailer Bridge was founded in 1991 by industry pioneer Malcom McLean to serve the Caribbean market and has since expanded to be a full-service, asset-light logistics solution provider headquartered in Jacksonville, Florida. In the past two years, the company added an International Division and Government Division solely focused on handling the movement of freight around the world and signed long-term lease agreements with both the Jacksonville Port Authority and Puerto Rico Ports Authority signaling its continued commitment to providing consistent weekly ocean service to Puerto Rico and the Caribbean.
