NZ Shipping Supplies was founded in 1947 by Brian McSherry, who saw an opportunity to support the shipping industry as New Zealand rebuilt after World War II. With strong connections and a commitment to honest, reliable service, Brian established a business that quickly grew to become a trusted name for ship provisioning.
In 2008, Brian’s daughter Fiona, with her husband Chris, took over the family business, continuing his legacy while modernising operations for today’s global shipping environment.
Under Fiona & Chris’s leadership and team, we’ve expanded our services, strengthened our supply chain, and refined our focus on delivering custom, just-in-time solutions to vessels worldwide.
At NZ Shipping Supplies, we promise to be more than just a supplier. We are your trusted partner at sea. With over 75 years of experience, we deliver first-grade products, tailored solutions, and reliable, just-in-time service wherever your journey takes you.

Throughout the evolution of our business and the maritime industry, our core values have remained unchanged… Integrity, trust, quality, sustainability and service first.
These principles guide every order, ensuring our clients know they can rely on us for exceptional products and dependable support, wherever their journey takes them.
