SCPA CEO Jim Newsome gives 11th State of the Port Address
South Carolina Ports Authority (SCPA) president and CEO Jim Newsome has always had a vision for S.C. Ports, ensuring its best days are ahead.
Newsome, who celebrates 10 years at the helm of S.C. Ports Authority this year, delivered his 11th State of the Port address today to more than 900 business executives, elected officials, SCPA customers and members of the maritime community. The Propeller Club of Charleston hosted the annual event in North Charleston.
Newsome said the overarching vision for SCPA remains consistent — to be the preferred port of the top 10 U.S. container ports. S.C. Ports is known for its efficiently run terminals, reliable service and customer-centric operations. Newsome attributes those successes to SCPA’s 700 talented employees and a dedicated maritime community.
