Port of Houston urged to boost work to maintain rank
Vaughn Bryant, director of international relations for the port, told Baytown Lions Club the Port of Houston must increase activity or risk losing its position as the second largest U S port by tonnage. He noted rival ports and a new selling program, plus opportunities in South America, Europe, and Asia. Bryant also said Houston can offer cheaper, better service than New York or New Orleans, despite a slight year’s tonnage dip from petroleum product reductions. He spoke at Tower Cafe and was introduced by Fred Parker.
