Upon completion, the center will handle distribution and storage, as well as inspections, repairs, accessory installations, vehicle programming and maintenance.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis project helps the port achieve its mission of being the economic engine for the city of Galveston and the local region. With this new vehicle processing center, we are confident that the activity level for the port will continue to increase, including the creation of new livable-wage jobs. We are pleased that our successful efforts to maintain existing world-class tenants and to attract additional ones continue,\u201d said Port Director Michael Mierzwa.<\/p>\n<p>The facility has been slated to open in early 2016 and will be able to process about 32,500 vehicles each year.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In an attempt to better serve the various BMW and MINI car dealerships scattered across Texas, Oklahoma, Louisiana and Arkansas, BMW Group recently broke ground for a new vehicle distribution center in Galveston, TX.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1158,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1589,21742],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1004118128","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-houston","category-latest"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v28.0 (Yoast SEO v28.0) -
