Northern Stevedoring Services (NSS) has been awarded the transport and logistics services contract for Sun Metal Corporation’s (SMC) zinc and by-products exports commencing in November 2008.

The contract further cements NSS’ positioning as the leading stevedoring and logistics services company in Northern Queensland and bolsters the company’s performance for the 2008/9 year.

“As the only fully-integrated stevedoring and supply chain service provider within regional Queensland, we are in a unique position to provide clients with an end-to-end logistics solution,” explains NSS General Manager, Todd Emmert.

NSS will provide stevedoring and transportation of all Sun Metal Corporations products in addition to a logistics package which will ensure cost efficiency across the entire supply change, storage facilities and strategic planning to execute SMC’s export supply chain.

“The contract has further strengthened our position as the largest stevedoring service provider in regional Queensland, with our ability to develop and sustain key relationships with export customers.”

The benefit of an integrated service of stevedoring and a logistics package will ensure that the transportation of SMC’s products will be met with innovative and streamlined administrative initiatives eliminating interface inefficiencies.

“This is an exciting opportunity, allowing NSS to further demonstrate our capacity to manage complex supply chains and integrated transport and logistics services”.
