Welcome to the Harbor Association

The Harbor Association of Industry & Commerce (HAIC) was established in 1975 as a non-profit organization with the primary goal of being a united and influential voice supporting the harbor business community. Our mission is to drive progress in industrial and commercial trade by promoting efficient best practices, economically responsible solutions, and advocating for impactful industry legislation that benefits our members.


Central to HAIC's mission are our dedicated committees, working tirelessly on behalf of our members. These committees play a vital role in monitoring legislation, establishing trusted relationships with key governmental leaders, and ensuring our members have a voice in crucial legislative discussions. Comprising industry thought leaders, our committee members craft customized resolutions and provide compelling oral testimony to champion the best interests of our members.

We invite our members to actively engage with our Association by participating in our key committees, which include Government Affairs, Marketing & Communications, Programs, Development, Education, and Scholarship & Philanthropy. Additionally, we have an Events Committee that supports special initiatives such as the Harbor Cup Challenge golf tournament, our "Salute to Industry" awards banquet, and our annual legislative visit to Sacramento.
Join us in shaping the future of our industry and strengthening the harbor business community.
