WE DO
-01-
Ship Chandlery & General Stores
We supply a full range of ship stores for container vessels, bulk carriers, tankers, cruise ships and navy vessels. This includes cabin, deck and engine stores, tools, electrical items, safety gear, ropes, cleaning products and general consumables needed for smooth daily operations on board.
-02-
Last-Mile Port Logistics & Express Deliveries
We specialise in last-mile delivery within and around the Port of Tauranga. This includes picking up goods from local suppliers, consolidating orders, handling documentation, and delivering directly to the vessel alongside or via launch, often at short notice.
-03-
Provisions & Galley Supplies
We source and deliver fresh, frozen and dry provisions tailored to each vessel’s requirements. From meat, seafood, fruit and vegetables to dairy, bakery and pantry items, we focus on quality and reliability so that crew are always well fed and stocked.
-04-
Cruise & Navy Vessel Support
We support cruise ships and navy vessels with fast-turnaround deliveries, top-up orders and special requests. Our focus is on reliability, clear communication with agents and crew, and working within tight port windows.
-05-
Technical & Engine Room Supplies
We arrange and deliver technical items such as power tools, hydraulic hoses, fittings, valves, electrical cables, lighting, and other maintenance-related equipment. Our role is to find the right product quickly, coordinate with specialist suppliers, and get it to the gangway on time.
-06-
Sourcing & Special Orders
If a vessel needs something unusual or urgent, we find it. We handle one-off and hard-to-source items by working with a wide network of local suppliers and logistics partners, providing options and pricing quickly so captains and agents can decide.
-07-
Bonded Stores (on request)
On request and subject to regulations, we help vessels source bonded items and crew welfare products. We work closely with agents and authorities to ensure compliance with New Zealand rules.
-08-
24/7 Call-Out Service (By Arrangement)
Shipping doesn’t stop, so neither do we. By arrangement, we offer after-hours and weekend call-outs to support urgent deliveries, schedule changes and last-minute requirements at Tauranga and surrounding areas.
