Calport Limited

Calport has operated in Perth for over 40 years. Previously owned by a large PLC company, the business was purchased in 2008. The change in ownership has given the business the much needed hands on, fast acting and forwarding thinking local management team to support the operations of the company and provide an improved and adaptable service in the hands of local Managing Director, Ross Howie. Calport offers a complete shipping service, ships agency, port-handling and stevedoring operations, along with extensive covered and open-storage facilities all based within Perth Harbour. The Perth facilities include 120,000 sq ft of indoor storage, consisting of segregated 1,000 tonne bays for bulk cargoes and laydown areas for bagged cargoes. With further plans to build extra sheds with a total capacity of 8,000 tonnes.
