Last night, Yusen Terminals had the honor of sponsoring and attending the ISC Maritime Industry Salute 2025, held aboard the historic USS Iowa. The event brought together members of the waterfront community to celebrate those who keep our ports thriving and connected.
This year’s celebration recognized Pacific Harbor Line, Inc. and President Otis Cliatt II for their remarkable leadership and contributions to the success of the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach. Their continued dedication ensures smooth port operations and strengthens collaboration across the maritime industry. We extend our warmest congratulations to PHL and President Cliatt on this well-deserved recognition and deeply value our ongoing partnership built on trust, teamwork, and shared goals.
The evening also served as a powerful reminder of the unseen yet essential contributions of seafarers, the men and women who power one of the nation’s strongest economic engines. The International Seafarers Center’s mission to provide a welcoming “home away from home” for visiting seafarers is one Yusen Terminals is proud to support. We’re grateful to be part of a community that continues to uplift and celebrate those who make global trade possible.
A heartfelt thank you to our YTI team who represented us at this inspiring event, and to our special guest, Erika Migliaccio of Upstream HR Strategies, for joining us in honoring the heart of our maritime community.
