Crowley Maritime Names Jim Grissom Manager San Juan Operations
Jim Grissom has been appointed San Juan, Puerto Rico, operations manager for Crowley Maritime Corporation's Caribbean Division, according to a recent announcement by Robert G. Homan, senior vice president of the division.
Formerly Jacksonville, Fla., terminal manager for Trailer Marine Transport Corporation, a Crowley subsidiary, Mr. Grissom will be responsible for all operational activities in San Juan and interisland services throughout the Caribbean.
The Caribbean operations of Crowley have quadrupled in cargo capacity since 1974. Crowley's Isla Grande terminal in San Juan is undergoing modernization and expansion to keep pace with future growth expectations. Mr.
Grissom's expertise in ro/ro operations will prove a vital asset in meeting growth demands.
In addition to Trailer Marine Transport's service between the U.S. mainland and Puerto Rico, Crowley operates feeder services between the Dominican Republic, Venezuela, the Virgin Islands and the Leeward and Windward Islands, out of its San Juan terminal.
