Suva and Lautoka

WHO WE ARE:

• Pacific Direct Line (PDL) is a Shipping Company specialising in providing liner shipper services to the South Pacific Region.

• We have been trading in the region for over 40 years

• The Company has been owned and managed by the same family since it’s formation and prides itself on the close family bond which is the backbone of the company and all its subsidiary businesses.

• In 2006 PDL sold 51% of the business to Pacific International Line (PIL) in Singapore.

• Our core business has been to provide shipping services from New Zealand and Australia to the Pacific Islands, but we have repositioned the business over the last five years to also provide feedering services for various international operators. WHAT WE DO:

• We offer liner shipping services to 16 countries and 22 ports including Fiji, (Suva and Lautoka) Samoa, American Samoa, Tonga, (Nuku’alofa), Wallis and Futuna, Funafuti, Vanuatu, ( Port Vila and Santo) New Caledonia, Tahiti, the Cook Islands (Rarotonga), Norfolk, Tarawa and Majuro.

• PDL owns Transam Agencies throughout the Pacific, ensuring consistent standards and levels of service across the region. (see attached)

• Our fleet of vessels are chartered mainly from our parent company, (PIL) and we are constantly upgrading our fleet to larger brand new vessels purpose built for this unique trade. This advantage allows us to select our vessels to cater for the growth in the volume from the influx of transhipment containers to the South Pacific.

• We are developing “bolt on” businesses ensuring vertical integration of our services across cartage, consolidation, stevedoring, container depots…

• PDL employs approximately 300 people throughout the Pacific in our shipping, agency and subsidiary companies.
