Ship chandler at
Dhamra

Odisha, India — East Coast · Deep-water dry bulk

Dhamra is a modern deep-water bulk terminal north of Paradip working capesize coal and ore parcels, with little of the surrounding commercial infrastructure an older port accumulates. Almost everything a vessel needs there has to arrive from somewhere else, which is precisely the problem a chandler exists to solve.

Working Dhamra

  • Capesize-capable berths draw large parcels and correspondingly large crew requisitions.
  • Limited local supply market: provisions, spares and bonded stores are brought in rather than sourced at the gate.
  • Terminal access is controlled and passes are pre-arranged; there is no walk-up delivery.

How we supply Dhamra

Ordered against the call rather than held locally, with the full requisition consolidated at our Chennai store and delivered as a single planned run, which is more reliable here than several small ones. In September 2026 we delivered safety stores to a vessel here during its call.
