Welcome to
Northport

New Zealand's newest deepwater port - a flexible, multi-purpose facility designed for importers, exporters and marine freight. 

WELCOME 

new Zealand's newest
multi-purpose port

Northport is designed and built as a flexible, multi-purpose facility to cater for a wide range of cargoes and their associated vessel types. Logs, woodchip and processed timber for export currently comprise the bulk of cargo processed by the port, along with kiwifruit, dairy products and manufactured goods.

We are well placed to handle any type of cargo and our mobile harbour crane gives us the ability to handle container traffic as well as a wide range of bulk cargoes. Our expert staff would be delighted to discuss your requirements with you.

With consented development plans to increase our berth by 270 metres and expand our hardstand area to 50 hectares, expansion is very much part of our thinking here at Northport.
