Dole Food Co. is expected next week to sign a new lease with the Port of San Diego that could keep the 10th Avenue Marine Terminal’s biggest tenant in town for the next 25 years, according to documents posted online Wednesday.
Dole, the largest of the port’s roughly 600 tenants, imports bananas, pineapples and mangoes in refrigerated shipping containers and gives the port about $2 million per year in lease payments.
