The region's transportation infrastructure includes Capital Region International Airport for air cargo options, the Port of Lansing for barge transportation on the Grand River, and extensive rail connections through Class I railroads.

Destination
Roatán
Roatán, located in the Bay Islands of Honduras, represents a strategic Caribbean logistics point serving both the tourism industry and broader Central American markets. As Honduras's primary island destination, Roatán requires consistent import flows of consumer goods, construction materials, and specialized equipment to support its growing hospitality sector and local population. The island's economy depends heavily on maritime and air cargo connections to the mainland, creating unique logistical requirements for temperature-sensitive and time-critical shipments.
The transportation infrastructure serving Roatán includes Juan Manuel Gálvez International Airport for air freight and the Port of Roatán for maritime cargo handling. Goods arriving on the mainland must be transported via ferry or cargo vessels to the island, requiring careful coordination and specialized handling. The limited infrastructure on the island necessitates experienced logistics partners who understand the complexities of island supply chains and can ensure reliable delivery of full truckload shipments from North American origins.
