Port Tampa Bay Signs Long-Term Deal With GLOVIS America to Expand Auto Business
Port Tampa Bay announced on Nov. 9 that it has signed a long-term agreement with auto logistics company GLOVIS America to expand its vehicle business at the port. Under the deal, GLOVIS will add about 32 acres of berth-adjacent land, growing its operating footprint from 48.5 acres to more than 80 acres — an increase of about 66 percent — and raising vehicle capacity to roughly 10,000 vehicles with about 3,000 additional spaces.
The work proceeds in two phases: the first 12 acres broke ground in August 2026, and the remaining 20 acres are scheduled for completion by the end of 2027. The port, in Hillsborough County, Florida, has handled more than 160,000 vehicles with GLOVIS since the partnership began in 2022. Port officials said the agreement strengthens Tampa's role as a West Coast of Florida gateway for vehicle imports and distribution.
