FORT LAUDERDALE, FL – Amerijet International will open a Fort Lauderdale air freight station on April 2, 2007, announced Pamela Rollins, Amerijet’s VP of Business Development.  

The station is located adjacent to Amerijet’s corporate headquarters at 2800 South Andrews Avenue.

“We have a lot of customers in Broward, Palm Beach and even Martin counties that will enjoy the additional convenience of this station,” Rollins said.  “Eventually, we will expand this location to offer ocean services and delivery of import cargo, to make shipping with us even easier.”

Amerijet will accept outbound international air freight at this station, including general personal and commercial cargo, large or small packages, barrels, valuable and fragile goods, hazardous material, and oversized shipments.
