Industry Application
Container And General Cargo Ships
Container and general cargo ships have short port stays and a maintenance window measured in hours. The store has to arrive complete, because there is no second chance before sailing.
Pain Points In This Segment
- Part-shipped store orders that force a second delivery the ship will not be alongside for
- Lashing area and deck steel corroding faster than the maintenance plan allows
- Deck fittings and fasteners bought loose, with no size record for the reorder
- Accommodation and galley stores ordered from a different supplier to the technical store
What These Customers Need
- One supplier covering technical, deck, safety and accommodation stores
- Surface preparation tools sized for short maintenance windows
- Fasteners and deck hardware coded so the reorder matches
- A packing list that matches the requisition line for line

Answers
Container And General Cargo Ships Questions
Can technical and catering stores ship together
Yes. That is the normal way we ship. Mixing tools, hardware, safety, galley and linen into one consignment is what keeps the vessel to one delivery.
How fast can a repeat order be placed
If the previous order was received against catalogue codes, a repeat is a one line message quoting those codes and the quantity.
Do you deliver to the agent
We ship to your forwarder, agent or the receiving port. Tell us the delivery point when you place the order.
What if a line is not in the catalogue
Send the description or a photo. We will confirm whether it can be sourced before you commit to the rest of the order.
