Neptune Pacific Joins Australia Shipping

Sydney-based liner, bulk and tramp shipping operator Neptune Pacific Line has joined Shipping Australia, the industry body covering majority of the country’s shipping activity, as a full voting member.

Neptune Pacific Line Pte Ltd (NPL) is a member of Roll Global LLC, which includes FIJI Water, Paramount Farms, Paramount Citrus, Justin and Landmark Wines, Vintage Nurseries, Teleflora, POM Wonderful, Wonderful Brands and Suterra. Roll acquired Neptune Shipping Line in December 2007 and commenced trading as Neptune Pacific Line Pte Ltd.

In 2014, Neptune formed a JV with Government of Samoa for the Pacific Forum Line, and also acquired Polynesian Shipping Line, making them one of the largest regional shipping lines in Oceania.

”I know that our membership will, with our liner, bulk and tramp operations, as well as ship technical capabilities locally, contribute positively to policy discussions just as we will gain benefit from the information provided by SAL and it’s members on industry matters,” Neptune’s Managing Director Rolf Rasmussen said.
