Gov. Ron DeSantis announced last month in Jacksonville that Florida's ports are open and ready to help alleviate the country's supply chain issues.
The global supply chain problem has existed for months due to the pandemic, causing American companies to scramble to find parts and goods to build their products.
This has also caused import prices to surge due to demand outweighing supply.
