That’s right, folks! Another expansion is underway for Lineage, which is strategically bolstering its footprint in the Houston, Texas, market. Opening the sixth location in its Greater Houston network, the newly opened facility is designed to offer integrated and streamlined transportation and drayage operations within the market.
“We are excited to strengthen our presence in Houston at such a pivotal time for the market,” said Brian Beattie, Lineage President of North American West. “The city has recently seen a surge in port demand amid congestion and other issues at the big ports on the West Coast. By adding ColdPort to our Houston network, Lineage’s customers have another option to help manage their costs and increase productivity. Additionally, they’ll have better access to our world-class global network.”
The Houston location, dubbed Houston ColdPort, complements the logistics ace’s network of locations across Texas, as well as its global footprint of more than 400 facilities. The facility officially began operating in October 2023.
Houston ColdPort spans approximately 315,000 square feet and is strategically located near the Jacintoport Terminal at Port Houston, a leader for the Houston Ship Channel and an integral component of Houston’s international trade activity.
Lineage currently employs more than 1,200 team members across its 19 facilities in Texas, which have a combined capacity of more than 189 million cubic feet and approximately 532,000 pallet positions, a press release explained.
