CURRENT ISSUE #10 • Q2 • SPRING 2017

FROM THE BRIDGE

It takes a special type
of person to have both the
talent and the passion needed
to work at Host. It’s not a
good fit for everyone. It is
human nature to compare
ourselves to our peers, our
competitors, and where we
were. Our goal at Host and
as individuals is to set the bar
in our industry, then raise it
again.
Just last month, our
agency office in New Orleans set an all-time record for
Host, handling over 100 ships in one month. Every single
one of our agents played a part in setting this record,
whether they flew in to help out and board ships in New
Orleans or boarded twice as many at home because their
teammate was on The River.
As we start new terminal and stevedoring operations,
then too, our highly-trained employees are asked to leave
home with little notice and be ready for work to begin
the moment they arrive at a startup or existing site. We
started four new operations this quarter, all while taking on
increased workloads at others.
No one here will tell you their job is easy, but we’re
each motivated by the desire to make a difference and
create a lasting impact. We’re motivated by the drive
to make the industry better than we found it, and we’re
making some of the biggest changes it has seen since the
advent of containerization.
Although the miles between us range, everyone at
Host is moving in the same direction. Our people can
pick up and move to completely different operations
and perform exceptionally well, because they’re keeping
our Core Principles and service standards wherever they
go. We’re all coming together to offer REAL solutions.
We’re a team of doers who get it done.
Thank you for all your hard work, your tireless
dedication, and for being here. Each and every one of
you is here for a reason. I’m humbled to be part of such a
strong team. I can’t promise an easy road, but I can promise
one where you’ll make a difference.
 NEW OPERATIONS THIS QUARTER
LOUIS DREYFUS GRAIN
ELEVATOR, BATON ROUGE, LA
On January 23, 2017, Host Terminals commenced
operations at the Louis Dreyfus grain elevator in Baton
Rouge, Louisiana. Host is operating the ship loader at the
grain elevator, exporting 5.6 million tons of grain per year and
loading 145 ships annually.
Operations Manager Kevin Cochran, Assistant Operations
Manager Mike Gates, and Superintendent Jonathan O’Hara
are currently overseeing the day-to-day operations. A special
thanks to team members from our East Coast locations,
including Terminal Manager Ned Barham, Regional Supervisor
Chris Bazemore, and Maintenance Manager Tim Ashworth,
who were on site to help get things started.

SEAGATE TERMINALS,
CHESAPEAKE, VA
On February 14, 2017, Host started operations as the bulk
stevedore for Seagate Terminals in Chesapeake, VA, where
we’re providing crane operations, front end loader operations,
and supervision for the discharge of cement clinker. Our
crews are set to discharge approximately 120K MT of clinker at
Seagate this year.

Cody McMahan, Chris Bazemore, Matt Horne, and James
Spivey for their great help and ongoing supervision.
HOST OFFERS REAL SOLUTION
TO PSEG
When PSEG Energy Resources & Trade requested bids
from multiple vendors to reach their goals, Host offered a
REAL solution to handle the entire operation.
On March 1, 2017, we began moving coal by barge from
PSEG’s Mercer Plant in Trenton, NJ to Tradepoint Atlantic
in Baltimore, MD, where Host discharges the barges, stores
the coal, and loads out to barges, vessels, railcars, or trucks.
Our very own tugboat, the MS Debbie, is currently working
on this operation.
Bundling all steps under the Host umbrella allows
the operation to run seamlessly, aligning schedules for
efficiency, decreasing cost, and eliminating risk for PSEG.
We chose Tradepoint Atlantic as the ideal site, because it
offers more options to move their coal than anywhere else.
 FIRST SHIP AT
ENVIVA WILMINGTON
Host Terminals loaded the first vessel at Enviva’s new
facility in Wilmington, NC this past December. The vessel
was loaded with over 42,000 metric tons of wood pellets.
The terminal is off to a great start, and the crew has
successfully loaded four ships, with their fifth on the dock
right now. Check out the “News” section of our website to
see a time-lapse video of the operation.

our fellow agents, I don’t know if we would
have survived!
“All our offices played a part in
setting this record,” says Host CEO Adam
Anderson. “When we sent agents from
other locations to help out in New Orleans,
the agents they left in their home offices
had to work harder in their absence. It was
an incredible team performance in a month
of new business and record profits. No one
in the industry is prepared for this level

known for, with zero failures. I’m honored

 HOST TERMINALS FORMALLY ANNOUNCES 10-YEAR LICENSE AGREEMENT

Tradepoint Atlantic, a 3,100-acre multimodal global

logistics center in Baltimore, Maryland, that features an
unmatched combination of access to deepwater berths,
railroads, highways, and storage space announced on April
5th an exclusive, 10-year agreement with Host Terminals to
oversee the vast majority of marine cargo operations.
As part of the announcement, $30 million in combined
investment toward infrastructure improvements will also
be made to the site. This will further Tradepoint Atlantic’s
ability to generate a projected 17,000 direct and indirect
permanent jobs over the next decade as it enhances
Baltimore’s competitiveness as a key East Coast port for
global trade.
“Tradepoint Atlantic is excited to welcome and partner
with a leading expert in terminal operations,” said Joe Greco,
Vice President of Marine and Commercial Development.
“We are in the process of expanding our marine capabilities
as we invest and expand our infrastructure to attract new
business to the Baltimore region with our partners. Host
is a 94-year-old company that’s been in Baltimore since

are eager for what the future brings as we further the

growth and build-out of our port. I look forward to working
with Host on maximizing the utility of this world class center.”
“Since Host’s founding in 1923, many of the
fundamentals of moving bulk and break bulk cargo haven’t
changed,” says Host President and CEO Adam Anderson.
“Tradepoint Atlantic offers a unique solution to create
efficiencies in the supply chain by processing goods on-
site and using rail to provide a lower delivered cost to our
customers. Our goal is to add value, whether it’s 50 acres
for a factory on-site, a storage warehouse, or a tank. With
Host’s expertise and our partners at Tradepoint Atlantic, we
can deliver those REAL solutions to the marketplace. It will
not only service the market in Baltimore, but will shift the
transportation paradigm for bulk and breakbulk cargoes to
the 21st century.”
With four berths, over 1,000 acres dedicated to marine
storage space, and connections to both CSX and Norfolk
Southern, Tradepoint Atlantic is the largest maritime
development in the United States. The site offers immediate
access to the interstate and regional road network, and it

Kevin Berwick
Host Terminals, Operator, Port Everglades, FL
Two hours after a twelve-hour
night shift, and Host Foreman
Kevin Berwick is still brimming with
positivity.
Kevin was a shoe-in when he
applied to work at Host. Before
joining us, he worked for King Ocean,
a container line, in South Florida for
eight years. “I did everything from
operating forklifts and top loaders
to doing paperwork,” he explains.
When Host took over operations for
King Ocean, Kevin went to work for a local yacht coordinator,
where he took care of the equipment in the yard. “When that
company went out of business, my old manager from King
Ocean recommended me to Host.”
Between moving containers and loading yacht ships, Kevin
already had a ton of the experience we needed. Operations
Manager Jonathan Foster hired him the next day. “Two months
later, they sent me to Jamaica for my gantry crane license,” he
remembers. “That’s a special feeling when a company invests in
you like that.”
“I love the managers at Host,” he says. “They give me so
much opportunity. I’ve only been here two years, and I feel like
I’m skyrocketing.”
Usually based in Port Everglades, Kevin has been in
Charleston, South Carolina lately to help with our stevedoring
Alex Ryan
Boarding Agent, Philadelphia, PA
After graduating from the
New York Maritime Academy at
Fort Schuyler with his bachelor’s in
Maritime Studies, Alex continued to
SUNY Maritime’s graduate program,
where he continued his studies
in International Transportation
Management. From there, he went
to work for a tugboat dispatching
company focused on liquid bulk and
later for a bulk vessel owner in New York.
While working for the tugboat
dispatcher, he heard about Host’s plans to open an office in
Philadelphia and met David Host and Kelsey Host at a CMA
event in November 2015. From that moment on, he says he
was persistent in calling Kelsey for updates.
Finally, in May of 2016, Alex interviewed with David
Chenowith and Paul Gaffney in Philadelphia, and got the job.
“I was drawn to Host, because the company is always
trying new things and doing them very well. We move quickly,
and we’re responsive,” he says. “I also really like that we take
6
operations for Phoenix Bulk Carriers. The crew is unloading
over one million tons of stone that will be used as the
foundation for a new, state-of-the-art container terminal. As
the foreman on the night shift, Kevin’s job is to relay messages
from the barge to the crane operators and complete the shift
logs. “I’m there to make sure we get the operation done the
right way,” he says.
“My main goal is safety, of course, but a close second is
good numbers!” Kevin enjoys motivating the team. “We’re
always trying to beat our last record. I have the best operators,
and we’re really proud of our hard work. It keeps the job
exciting for everyone.”
When asked what talents are required to do his job, Kevin
points out that it’s taken a lot of experience and training to gain
the hard-earned skill needed for his position. “You have to have
good communication and people skills as well,” he adds. “And
you have to be NICE. A big part of managing other people is
listening, understanding, and respecting them. It’s important.”
Kevin and his wife, Cassiea, recently celebrated their one
year anniversary. “It’s a fairytale marriage,” he says with a big
smile. The couple had their first child, Kevin, Jr., six months ago,
and he couldn’t be more proud. “We’re looking to buy our first
house now. Life is good, man! No complaints.” When Kevin isn’t
working or hanging out with his family, he enjoys shopping.
“Did you think I wore dirty T-shirts and jeans all the time?” he
laughs. “I clean up really well!”
Kevin’s favorite thing about Host is that it’s such a large,
growing company. “I never feel stuck,” he says. “The sky’s the
limit here. This is where I’m going to retire. This is it.”
responsibility for what happens, both good and bad. There’s a
lot of integrity at Host. It reminds me of the Coast Guard, and
that’s rare in the corporate world.”
Alex appreciates that most of the executives have worked
as agents. “They know what kind of work I do on a daily basis,
and that makes the company people-centered. I feel very
supported.”
As for being an agent, Alex says, “I like getting out on
the ships and working with the crew. I enjoy the challenge of
unraveling the knots we’re given. It’s an exciting job.”
The most important skill required to be an agent is
teamwork, he says. “We rely on one another to get everything
done. Communication is very important.” When asked if there
were any challenges in his day-to-day work that most people
wouldn’t know, Alex pointed out time zones. “Not only are we
keeping everyone’s goals in mind with each port call, mediating
between parties, keeping everyone on track, and finding
solutions….we have to do it across very different schedules.”
His favorite part of the job is sailing a ship, and going home
after a long day, knowing he made a difference.
When he’s not working, Alex enjoys exploring
Philadelphia with his girlfriend, golfing, playing basketball, and
snowboarding.
Anthony Cleveland
Host Terminals, Account Manager, Baltimore, MD
Six months into a very competitive
management development program
with a large bank in Frederick, MD,
Anthony heard about Host.
“I read the website, found an email
address, and applied to be an agent,”
he says. “When I got the job, I had to
make the tough decision to leave a
comfortable, promising career at the
bank to move to an industry I knew
absolutely nothing about. It was crazy,
and my mom was furious, but it’s the
best decision I ever made.” That was almost five years ago.
Anthony caught on to agency work in Host’s Baltimore
office pretty quickly, soon becoming everyone’s go-to guy for
answers. “I just never turned my phone off,” he laughs. “I was
always available. I still am.”
Two years in, Anthony made the switch to terminal work.
“I remember sitting in the agency office and listening to Cees
talk about the growth of Host Terminals on the company-wide
quarterly call,” he says. “When the call ended, I emailed Cees and
told him I wanted to be a part of it.”
Anthony got his feet wet as the assistant terminal manager
at the Perdue grain elevator in Chesapeake, VA, before moving
to the Sherwin operation in Gregory, TX, where he was the
superintendent. “I did a lot of things to help with the start-up of
Sherwin,” he says. “Mostly, I pushed the Host culture, teaching
our employees more about our high standards of safety and
service.” While at Sherwin, he also earned certification in all the
heavy equipment on site. “Yes! I can work all the equipment,” he
Debra Humphrey
Host Agency, Freight Forwarder, Norfolk, VA
Freight Forwarder Debra
Humphrey started working with
us 26 years ago, and she can
usually be found in our Norfolk
headquarters, telling a comical
story from her early days at Host.
“I’ve always enjoyed coming to
work,” she says. “The company has
changed a lot since I started. We
went from a small family company
to something so much larger than I
ever imagined. Even with all the
growth, it’s neat how everyone here is such an integral part of
the chain.”
From helping with traffic schedules at the terminals to
typing port logs for our operations and sales departments, it
seems she’s done a bit of everything. “We were really big on
cross training back when we were small,” she explains. “We
had to know how to do a bit of everything, so we could jump
in and help out wherever.”
At one time, she was in charge of something called “The
laughs. “Do people think I just wear nice clothes and talk on the
phone?” (He does wear nice clothes.)
After spending six months at Sherwin, he traveled and
helped with other terminals, until the day he received an email
from one of our executive admins. It just said, “Meet Cees at this
address. Bring your laptop.” When he arrived, Cees was standing
at an old tank terminal. It would be the first terminal Host ever
purchased, and they wanted Anthony to get it running. In one
month, it would be Tidewater Tank Terminal and fully operational.
“I was part of every decision that went in to building that site—
the construction phase, installing pipes and pumps, painting the
tanks, putting in roads, and hiring the staff,” he says. “It’s one of
the greatest achievements of my career. I loved it.”
Six months later, Anthony became Host’s account manager
at Tradepoint Atlantic in Baltimore, MD, the largest marine
terminal development in the United States. He’s the main
point of contact for our customers, communicating both the
good and the bad of every marine operation at the enormous
property, quoting rates, and doing tremendous amounts of
research to find new business opportunities to offer REAL
solutions. “Tradepoint Atlantic is an incredible opportunity
for Host,” he says. “It’s very special for me to have direct
involvement with our growth there.”
Anthony’s advice to others is something Adam Anderson
tells him all the time: Leave something behind. “You own your
position,” he says. “If you want to do something different, you
better start setting it up so someone can take over when you get
your chance, because we’re moving quickly and we don’t have
time to wait.”
Despite his many responsibilities at Host, Anthony says his
most important work is being the best dad to his four-year-old
daughter, Lilly. “She’ll always be my biggest accomplishment,” he
says.
Board,” a hand-written list of the every vessel’s status on
yellow legal paper. “Looking back, I can’t believe how much
time I spent rewriting that messy list all the time!” she laughs.
Now, working as a freight forwarder (with much more
technologically-advanced tools!), Debra creates and handles
confidential documentation for vessels and their cargo as
they travel from one place to another. “For a long time, I
directly supported our operations team, assisting them with
documents so everything moved smoothly,” she explains.
“Now, I prepare documents directly for the client, and I’m
really enjoying that customer service aspect of my work.”
Judging by all the kind notes and flowers she receives,
customers enjoy working with Debra too! “My favorite part
of the job is building relationships with all our customers and
vendors,” she says. “I’ve never physically met most of them,
but having that good connection makes my job so much
easier and more enjoyable. It’s never monotonous. Even after
26 years, I’m still learning something new every day!”
When Debra is not working, she enjoys riding her bike 10
miles to and from Virginia Beach Oceanfront with her dog in
her basket. She also enjoys cooking, walking, and listening to
audiobooks.

GOOD CALL FOR A
REAL SOLUTION
Earlier this month, a Host Terminals employee realized
he couldn’t find his cell phone after trimming the holds of a
ship carrying wood pellets. This was a big deal, because wood
pellets are highly-flammable, and a cell phone could cause
major problems. Although the employee wasn’t supposed
to have his cell phone while working, he showed a lot of
integrity and notified his terminal manager that the phone
might be lost in the hold.
Host informed the customer immediately, and then
began an extensive team effort to look for the phone around
the terminal. When it wasn’t found, we decided it was likely in
the hold.
We knew we could discharge all the cargo, costing
thousands of dollars in time and product and causing a huge
inconvenience for our customer…or we could come up with
a REAL solution. That’s when Terminal Manager Jimmy Lusk
had the great idea to hire a ground radar company. They
scanned the ship the same day and pinpointed an area of the
cargo with abnormalities. Our team moved five feet of wood
pellets ….and found the phone!
“It was a great team effort,” said Jimmy Lusk. “I’m very
proud of the employee for having the integrity to do the
right thing and bring the problem to my attention.”
Host paid the demurrage to the client, so there were no
extra charges for the ship delay. We appreciate the staff’s
tireless efforts and dedication to our Core Principles of
integrity, relationships, and service.

HOST TERMINALS UNLOADS

FIRST ALUMINUM VESSEL AT TPA
Host Terminals recently unloaded our first non-ferrous
cargo at TPA, discharging 10,000 MT aluminum sows. (Fun
Fact: One aluminum sow weighs 0.7 MT!)
“The team was well-prepared,” says Maintenance
Manager Ken Shults. “We did a lot of research and
developed a good plan to safely and efficiently unload the
vessel.”
“What stood out to us was how well the team worked
together during the entire operation,” says Senior VP of
Business Implementation Greg Horvath. “Impressive work
from the whole team!”

HOST’S ECO ENERGY TEAM UNLOADS ONE HUNDREDTH TRAIN

On Easter Sunday, April 16 2017, our team at Eco Energy unloaded their one hundredth train since Host took over
operations. With 80 cars per train, they unloaded 8,000 rail cars (about 5.2 million barrels) in a year and a half, all without a
single injury.
We increased our throughput this year and the crew successfully maintained the new pace, moving from last year’s six
trains and four barges per month to this year’s ten trains and twelve barges.
“I’d like to thank the operators from our other locations for coming up to help out,” says Operations Manager Zac Kaye.
“Together, we were able to reach this milestone safely and efficiently.”

On January 26, 2017, the Elizabeth River Project
recognized Host’s Tidewater Tank Terminal at the Annual
River Star Businesses Luncheon for our dedication
to both pollution prevention and wildlife habitat
enhancement. Our pollution prevention measures
include refurbishing tanks, loading efficiencies, and
multiple storm water controls. Tidewater Tank Terminal
