pleasure I get just being around cars —
and being around the best cars makes it
easy.”
Boudalis got his industry start with
MBUSA 12 years ago in Los Angeles, after
graduating with a business management
degree from Cal State Fullerton.
MBUSA signed a 20-year lease with
the Port of Baltimore in 2004; the facility
currently has 76 MBUSA employees on-
site, as well as using third-party temporary
labor and contractors to perform certain
work. “In total, we operate with approx-
imately 120 persons on-site everyday,”
Boudalis said.
The White Marsh resident, recently
married, is enthusiastic about his
Baltimore assignment, saying, “Working
with the Maryland Port Administration is
great; (MPA Executive Director) JimWhite
and his team are always incredibly help-
ful and supportive. The MPA team always
makes us feel like partners when working
on our various projects together.”
Likewise, Boudalis has made quite an
impression on the MPA. “I’ve worked with
a lot of auto processors, and Ted is really
second to none when it comes to running
a processing center,” White said. “He
meets the needs of Mercedes and their
customers. If you didn’t know how old he
is, you’d think this is something he’d been
doing for 20 years!”
The Mercedes vehicle processing
center is a natural fit with the Port of
Baltimore because, according to Boudalis,
“Mercedes-Benz produces the highest-
quality vehicles, and that goes hand-in-
hand with having the best people and the
right facilities.”
He added, “Baltimore provides a good
location for Mercedes-Benz in that it allows
us to be positioned in between several of
our major markets: New York, Philadephia,
and Washington D.C., while also allowing
us to effectively deliver our vehicles to the
Midwest and central United States.”
Never one to stray far from his love for
automobiles, Boudalis said he spends his
free time “at weekend races, participat-
ing in road rallies, riding motorcycles and
working on cars just for fun.”
