A new acting president & CEO for Port Nola


The board of commissioners of the port of New Orleans (Port Nola) has formally confirmed Ronald J. Wendel Jr., who is currently serving as Port Nola’s executive VP and CFO, as acting president and CEO of Port Nola and acting CEO of NOPB. He will assume his new positions in June following the departure of current president and CEO, Brandy Christian, who has accepted the role of CEO of Patriot Rail Company.

 

Wendel, who joined Port Nola in 2015, brings a wealth of experience to the role and is poised to ensure that key strategic initiatives, like the USD 1.8 billion-dollar Louisiana International Terminal, move forward without interruption.

 

Wendel has been a key figure in securing USD 800 million in commitments from future private Louisiana International Terminal operators Ports America and Terminal Investment Limited (TIL), the investment arm of Mediterranean Shipping Company. (cj)
