The largest ship to ever call JAXPORT, the ONE STORK, called JAXPORT on Tuesday, May 9.
Operated by shipping line Ocean Network Express (ONE) within THE Alliance network of ocean carriers, the ONE STORK has a carrying capacity of 14,000 TEUs (containers). Previously, the largest ships to call JAXPORT had a capacity of 11,923 TEUs.
ONE STORK is the first of nine larger vessels that will call JAXPORT weekly through the EC5 container service operated by THE Alliance. Effective May 2023, THE Alliance has upsized the vessels used in the service, replacing smaller ships with six larger 14,000-TEU and three larger 13,000-TEU vessels. The upgraded vessel sizes average a 60 percent increase in container carrying capacity over the previous ships in the service.

*The ship is scheduled to depart the Blount Island terminal around noon, Thursday, May 11.
