DIX Agency, LP
Serving vessels, owners and crews since 1947, around the clock.
From arrival to departure
DIX Agency provides 24/7 service from its locally staffed operations headquarters in Brownsville and operates in the ports of Brownsville, Corpus Christi, Harbor Island and Port Lavaca.
Our agents coordinate channel pilots and tugs, process import documentation, work with immigration and customs, arrange chandler deliveries and see to crew needs, including medical and dental care. Through agency partners in Tampico, Veracruz and Coatzacoalcos we can appoint sub-agents to attend vessels in Mexico.
We serve ship owners, operators, charterers and brokers with principal trade routes from Asia, Europe and South America, attending all vessel types and in particular clean product tankers, chemical and dry-bulk vessels, rigs, tugs and ATBs.
