We’re currently preparing for the most extensive infrastructure upgrades the port has seen in over a century. The Twin Berth project will allow two 185-200 metre ships to berth at once.
Now more than ever we need to upgrade our infrastructure and prepare the port to ensure we can keep ahead of the demand of projected volumes of wood products, the growing horticulture sector, cruise ships, and enable containerisation
A shared future
Eastland Port is Tairāwhiti’s port. We’re locally owned and every year we return millions of dollars to our sole shareholder and community trust, Trust Tairāwhiti.
With a shared vision, we can look forward to a shared future: one where we all see Tairāwhiti thrive.
