CentrePort Ltd

CentrePort is at the heart of connecting New Zealand's freight and transport system. Based in Wellington, we’re more than just a port. We connect importers and exporters from regional New Zealand to international markets by road and rail, handling a wide range of cargo, including containers, logs, bulk fuel, vehicles and other bulk cargo. Our experienced marine services team, equipped with modern tugs and launch vessels, provide expert handling and pilotage for ships calling into Wellington. We also provide infrastructure to support more than 100 cruise ships that visit Wellington each year, and lease wharf facilities to for the Cook Strait ferry services that facilitate over 3,000 journeys each year, over a million passengers, and $20b in freight. Alongside our port in Wellington, we operate a container and bulk cargo aggregation hub in Whanganui, a container hub in Marlborough, and a log hub at Waingawa in the Wairarapa. This enables us to provide a widespread service footprint for our customers.  We’re constantly innovating to provide the best service to our customers, working closely with them to help solve logistics challenges, improve efficiency and minimise costs, through our multi-modal CentreConnect Service. CentrePort is co-owned by the Greater Wellington Regional Council and Horizons Regional Council and governed by a commercial board of experienced business leaders.
