Port of Albany

The Port of Albany is looking for a PR firm to drum up some positive publicity about the impact that it has on the economy of the Empire State.

The Port says it generates more than $800M in economic activity. It employs 1,400 local people and supports the jobs of another 4,500 in New York.

The Albany Port District Commission has issued an RFQ looking for a partner to assist it in implementing strategic communications to promote a positive image, achievement of its economic goals and integrity as a public asset.

The desired firm will have knowledge of the transportation industry and the upstate New York market.

It will coordinate its programming with current APDC marketing, business development and social media initiatives.

Responses are due Oct. 16.

They go to Megan Daly at [email protected] with hard copies to follow at Albany Port District Commission, 106 Smith Blvd., Albany NY 12202.
