Baytown Cedar Port industrial park signs major tenant

BAYTOWN – Cedar Port Industrial Park, a massive park located across the Houston Ship Channel from the Barbours Cut and Bayport container terminals, has sold 50 acres and an existing 312,000-sf warehouse to a South American plastics packaging company.

The buyer plans to use the 50 acres to expand its operations, including adding more warehouse space. The company is the first major tenant to be signed since Beaumont-based Trans-Global Solutions Inc. purchased the park in December.

The park has direct access to both the Union Pacific Railroad and BNSF Railway as well as to a Chambers County Improvement District barge dock on Cedar Bayou.

In February, TGS announced that it will make $22 million in infrastructure improvements, including expanding rail lines, to allow for 11,000 acres to be developed within the park.
