Kerala, India — West Coast · Containers, cruise, bunkering and shipyard
Also known as Kochi
Cochin is Kerala's principal port and one of the most varied on the Indian coast: a container terminal at Vallarpadam, a large shipyard, an established bunkering trade and a growing cruise business. Cruise calls in particular bring provisioning requirements no cargo vessel generates.
Working Cochin
- Cruise calls require volume fresh provisioning against a fixed, unmovable sailing time.
- Wharf entry and vehicle passes go through the port's online access control system, are verified before issue and are checked again by CISF at the gate.
- Stocked items alongside within 24 hours; anchorage deliveries by launch in 24 to 48 hours.
- Shipyard periods generate sustained supply rather than a single delivery.
How we supply Cochin
One of our established west coast calls, and the port where our FSSAI-licensed provisioning matters most. Deck work matters as much: in August 2026 we delivered two coils each of 32 mm manila and 10 mm nylon 3-strand rope, with 28 brake lining strips, to a vessel alongside during its call.
