La Jollan recognized by shipping organization

Jonathan B. Ferrini, president and CEO of JBF Corp./Ferrini Corp., was recently a finalist in the Containerisation International Awards 2011 in the Container supplier/lessor of the year category.

The La Jolla resident’s company designed a second-generation intermodal shipping container that earned the recognition, which goes to “companies and individuals that, over the past year, have made an outstanding contribution to the container liner shipping and logistics industry, either through being innovative, proactive and pioneering,” according to a letter Ferrini received notifying him about the results.
