ISO Stevedoring

ISO Limited has a proud history of stevedoring on the New Zealand waterfront and is rated as an industry leader in all aspects of cargo handling. We safely and efficiently manage millions of tonnes of cargo each year onto and off hundreds of vessels throughout New Zealand. ISO stevedoring utilizes its proprietary state of art IT system called Stowage Handling Inventory Planning system (SHIPsys™) developed in conjunction with an external development house.
