Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all our Napier Port customers and valued partners. We wish you a safe and relaxing holiday period, with time to enjoy alongside friends and whānau.
2025 has been a year of steady progress for Napier Port and the Hawke’s Bay region. We remain focused on providing reliable port services while continuing to invest in the future through a whole-of-port approach, including new operating modes, emerging technology, and our joint-venture dredge with Port Otago. Together, this work supports regional producers and strengthens the port’s long-term role in connecting Hawke’s Bay with global markets.

Continuing a valued tradition, our port whānau has again come together to support the community this Christmas. Our voucher donation helped fund 50 Christmas hampers provided to local whānau through the Salvation Army, and we also contributed 150 Christmas gift bags, helping bring some extra joy to families across Hawke’s Bay.
Thank you to all our customers and partners for your continued support and collaboration throughout the year.
We wish you a safe and enjoyable holiday period and look forward to working together again in the year ahead.
Ngā mihi nui,
Todd Dawson and the Napier Port team Chief Executive
