Laurie Nelson-Cooley, business development manager for the port, said, “The port recently completed a market analysis report and scrap metal exports came back as one of the top commodities for export that the Pacific Northwest is viable for. U.S. scrap accounts for somewhere between 60 to 70 percent of the world’s volume.”
Marketing Director Hank Doane said in a statement released by the port Friday, “We have intentions of growing our business with a solid working relationship with the longshore, Port of Longview and Pasha Stevedoring.”
