Francisco Alejandro Campos Álvarez assumes the Executive Directorship of the Port Authority
President Luis Abinader has made official strategic changes to the government cabinet, appointing Francisco Alejandro Campos Álvarez as the new executive director of the Dominican Port Authority (APORDOM). Campos Álvarez replaces Jean Luis Rodríguez, who has been transferred to lead the Ministry of Housing, Habitat and Buildings (MIVHED).

A career linked to the port sector
Campos’ management in the public sector has been constant over the last six years. His work has been fundamental in the execution of key projects that seek to modernize the national port system. In addition to his role on the Board of Directors, he led the Presidential Commission for Port Modernization and Security, from where he promoted initiatives to consolidate the Dominican Republic as a logistics and cruise ship benchmark in the Caribbean region.
Campos has actively participated in the expansion of port infrastructure, including the development of cruise terminals and the ambitious Cabo Rojo tourism project in the province of Pedernales.
Professional profile of the new director
- Academic background: Holds specialized studies in Marketing, Finance, Insurance and Reinsurance, as well as business management and project development.
- Previous experience: Before his foray into public administration, he accumulated an outstanding track record in the private sector, specifically in the insurance area.
- Institutional vision: His technical knowledge and experience on the Board of Directors position him as a key figure to provide continuity to the roadmap for the modernization of Dominican ports.
With this appointment, the Executive Branch is committed to the continuity of the infrastructure projects that have positioned the country as a strategic point in international maritime trade, entrusting the execution of these goals to an official with extensive experience in the field.
