company profile
Our history
The Idea for Shipwright Services started in June of 2017, with Derick Wright taking a 6 month sabbatical from Shipping to re-evaluate himself and what he wants to do in Shipping. Having worked in the business for 13 years, in Stevedoring and Ships Agency, he realised there is a general lack of Customer service and general work ethic, to the point where Customers are told what to expect and not asked what do they want
With a few like minded individuals’ support as well as support of his family, Shipwright Services was born. The aim is not to be just a Ships Agency, but rather a full service one stop shop. We want to be able to assist from logistics getting cargo from the mine, to the loading and any other service that may be required.
Our history Continued
With a vast network of surveyors, consultants and service providers, we are in the best position to give you the service required, on the Customers’ terms and therefore streamlined to suit your needs.
We are lucky enough to already have a few strong individuals onboard and will hope to expand the team as the business grows in the future.
We are also level 4 BEE with near future plans to increase to Level 2.
Our philosophy
With over 13 years of Stevedoring and Ships Agency experienced, we will be able to provide the best service possible. We will focus on Ships Agency, Husbandry matters, as well as related Shipping matters, where required.
With a network of like-minded individuals, we will be able to assist with all Shipping requirements, from Mine to vessel.
As the company grows, we are looking to put back into the community and looking to start a learnership in the near future. With the assistance of the IDZ, we want to find like minded individuals in the local community and give them the tools and assistance to make a future in Shipping.
Like our motto states - SHIPPING DONE RIGHT!
