Perez started operations in New York and moved its headquarters to Florida in 1980. The paper products distributor is a key exporter at Port Everglades. It has a 170,000-square-foot warehouse and office in Miami and distributes more than 350,000 tons of paper products a year.
Much of its business is to Central America, South America and the Caribbean. From Port Everglades, the company uses the services of Crowley Liner Services, Maersk Line and Mediterranean Shipping Co.
'Perez Trading, and the successful business model that this family-owned and operated company has developed, is a good example of why Port Everglades maintains a healthy export business as compared to other U.S. seaports,' says Port Everglades Director Phillip C. Allen.
