Moran Towing Corporation acquired Bisso Towboat Co.
Moran was founded in 1860 and is privately owned and operated. It offers ship assist services in 17 ports along the U.S. East and Gulf Coasts and has operated in New Orleans since 2006. In addition to its ship assist business, Moran also services LNG terminals, and transports liquid and dry bulk cargo with its fleet of liquid and dry bulk barges.
Bisso was founded in 1890 in New Orleans, and its headquarters remain in the area to this day. It is known in the region for its well-maintained, modern fleet of ASD tractor tugs, and its focus on reliable operations for its customers. Like Moran, it is also privately owned and operated.
“Bisso has deservedly earned a reputation as a high-quality operator who deeply values its long-term customer relationships, and treats its employees with respect,” said Ted Tregurtha, CEO & President of Moran Towing Corporation. “We are thrilled to welcome Bisso to the Moran team. This acquisition reflects our commitment to serve the growing needs of New Orleans and the Lower Mississippi River communities where we operate for decades to come.”
Both Bisso and Moran have long histories
