In celebration of #nationaltruckdriverappreciationweek and #hispanicheritagemonth, this afternoon CEMEX USA hosted a special event to recognize the incredible dedication of their truck drivers. Vladimir Castillo, Pedro Gonzalez and other truck drivers received safety gear, a trucker hat, and Cuban food to thank them for their hard work. 👷 Our truck drivers play a critical role in moving cement, a vital material for construction and infrastructure. We’re proud to support tenants like CEMEX, who continue to prioritize both safety and community spirit here at the Port of Palm Beach.
About us
Established in 1915, the Port of Palm Beach District is a Special Taxing District, operating as a Sub-Division of the State of Florida. The taxing authority has not levied ad valorem taxes on district properties since 1975, operating solely off revenues generated through its operations. The Port of Palm Beach is a full-service, diversified port, offering cruise and cargo services to more than 30 onsite tenants and users. At 162 acres, the Port’s efficiency is unparalleled, processing more than $7 billion in commodities, 2.5 million tons of cargo, and 500,000 cruise passengers annually. The Port of Palm Beach ranks as the fourth busiest of Florida’s 14 deepwater ports and 20th in the nation. More than 2,850 people are employed by the Port of Palm Beach and its tenants, making it one of the largest employers in Palm Beach County. And through the contribution of more than $185 million in business revenue and $17.5 million in tenant-contributed state and local annual tax revenue, it is one of the largest economic engines in South Florida.

🚛It’s National Truck Appreciation Week and what better way to celebrate than to highlight the truck drivers who help deliver goods to consumers. Joe Dias with Heavy Lift Services, Inc. isn’t your typical truck driver. He uses trucks to load all types of cargo on ships usually bound for the Bahamas. 🇧🇸
