T. Parker Host provides total solutions for customers’ terminal, stevedoring, and agency needs. We are transforming bulk and breakbulk markets by reimagining the supply chain for the 21st century. We adopt our customers’ goals and leverage our investments in strategic assets, data-driven analytics, and industry expertise to optimize the supply chains of our customers. As vessel agents, HOST handles port calls for over eight-million tons of petcoke each year, exported from the US Gulf and East coasts. In 2018, we purchased the 254-acre Avondale Shipyard in Louisiana, including one mile of waterfront, five docks and extraordinary rail access. Most recently, we completed the acquisition of United Bulk Terminals’ coal and petcoke facility in Davant, Louisiana, which provides a complementary asset to our growing network and services.
UBE was founded in 1,897 in Japan with the founding of the Okinoyama Coal Mine in Ube City, Yamaguchi Prefecture under the leadership of our founding president, Sukesaku Watanabe.” UBE has since expanded into machinery, cement, and chemicals, under the founding spirit of "coexistence and mutual prosperity" that links corporate growth to community progress, and "from finite mining to infinite industry" by which we embrace the challenge of creating diverse businesses from the starting point of coal. UBE has clearly restated its corporate philosophy and management principles as a basis for its business efforts in meeting ever-diversifying and complex needs, and creating new value for society.
