Hello Sydney,
There are several industries around Florida that would allow you to utilize a logistics/supply chain degree. A good way to get started would be in the 3PL industry which would allow you to manage several different types of materials/products i a very short period time. Florida is also a hot spot for the import/export industry which would allow you to utilize your logistics degree in the containerized freight industry, this would include container import/export and drayage, and bulk freight industry.
South Florida is a prime spot for the import/export industry while central Florida is prime for distribution and 3PL.
