International trade volumes remained anemic at the Port of Tacoma during the first few months of 2010, but the port is still on track to be solidly in the black by year’s end, port executives told Port of Tacoma commissioners this week.
The port expects net income of $20.7 million for 2010, David Morrison, the port’s director of financial planning and treasurer, told commissioners Tuesday afternoon. That’s $200,000 less than the 2010 budget projected, but still a huge turnaround from 2009 when the port posted a $23.2 million loss.
