Morrison Express launches new LCK service
Morrison Express has launched a new logistics service at the cargo-only Rickenbacker International Airport (LCK) in Lockbourne, Ohio. Located 10 miles from downtown Columbus, the LCK facility serves as a central hub for many of fashion, electronics, and retail’s biggest names.
“Rickenbacker is an optimal distribution location for many global brands, and our ability to service their needs was a driving factor in partnering with the CFS facility there,” said Tony Medeiros, Vice President and General Manager of the Americas for Morrison Express.
“This 90,000 sq. ft. container freight station, combined with our customized solutions, delivers a competitive advantage for our clients’ importing and exporting needs,” Medeiros added.
Morrison Express said that LCK’s location allows for more timely and cost-effective distribution and is able to reach over 70% of the US and Canadian population within 2 days via standard LTL truck service. Morrison Express airline partners Cathay Pacific, Emirates, and Cargolux are now making multiple 100-ton flights per week directly in and out of Rickenbacker International Airport, bypassing traditional gateways such as New York or Chicago.
