The Coastal Bend Industry Association (CBIA), formerly known as Port Industries of Corpus Christi, announced their new brand at a reception held in July. This organization has continued to bring together refiners, chemical and bulk material manufacturers, rig fabricators, energy providers, and supporting distribution and terminal facilities located in Nueces, San Patricio, and Kleberg counties for over 70 years to propel our community forward and help build partnerships that improve the regional quality of life.
CBIA worked with MDR Advertising, a local award-winning advertising agency, to create a new brand to better reflect the companies it represents. The redesigned logo incorporates elements of the natural ecosystem–such as sun, water, and wind–representing key focal points of the association: economic vitality, environmental stewardship, water and air quality, emergency management and safety. CBIA member companies continue the tradition as the environmentally responsible economic engine for this region. Focus areas CBIA members collectively address include but are not limited to: air quality, uninterruptible water supply, workforce development, and quality of life for all in the Coastal Bend area.
