The FPC is governed by a Board of Directors comprised of the port directors with staff support located in Tallahassee. The FPC provides research, leadership, advocacy and information on seaport-related issues before the legislative and executive branches of state and federal government. Florida’s network of seaports is one of the state’s greatest economic assets, positively affecting every region
and every resident. Whether moving over a hundred million tons of cargo annually or millions of cruise passengers, Florida’s seaports accommodate a vast array of commercial activity and the FPC believes supporting a strong, strategic, state-seaport partnership will enable our diverse seaports to maximize their vast economic contributions to communities in every region of our state.
