Port of Tauranga

A commitment to customer service and innovative shipping solutions has established the Port of Tauranga as the preferred cargo gateway for New Zealand and the economic hub of the Bay of Plenty and Waikato regions.

The key to the success of this, New Zealand's fastest growing port, is a focus on maintaining our core business at Tauranga, while also expanding into new ventures that are reshaping the traditions of service delivery in New Zealand's port sector. These include:

• The establishment of New Zealand's first integrated inland port operation, MetroPort Auckland, to provide importers and exporters with a range of practical benefits and a choice of ports in the Auckland region.
• An alliance with Northland Port Corporation (NZ) Ltd to develop a new deepwater port at Marsden Point. This also reflects the Port of Tauranga's multi-port growth strategy.
• A joint venture with Asciano, C3 Limited (formally known as Toll Owens Limited) operates an integrated marshalling and stevedoring service at 13 ports throughout New Zealand.
• The purchase of Tapper Transport. Tapper Transport operates the largest freight container station in Australasia, offering a wide range of logistics services.
  

The Port of Tauranga is no longer striving simply to be New Zealand's preferred single cargo gateway. We aim to be recognised as New Zealand's leading port by offering a range of preferred cargo gateways and shipping solutions that include and transcend the boundaries of our historic base in the Bay of Plenty.
