Global Connections – Local, Personalised Service

The world of trade is a scary place. We specialise in helping start-up companies in establishing their import and / or export supply chain arrangements, and aim for a long-term mutually beneficial developing relationship with those companies.

Burnard International is a 100% New Zealand owned and operated company. We offer a full range of customs, international and domestic freight, and logistics services to, from, and within New Zealand and other countries throughout the world.

Established in 1982, the company is well respected as a provider of reliable services with competitive rates, and a pro-active, customer focused attitude. Our approach to tailoring services to the requirements of the customer (rather than force them to work strictly to a ‘one for all’ system), means that we study your needs and provide an exacting service to suit. Our staff in 4 offices (Auckland, Tauranga, Wellington & Christchurch) have the expertise and industry experience to provide you with the best in freight management. We have staff who are fluent in Portuguese, Cantonese, Chinese, Indian and other languages.

As an independent locally owned company, we are able to respond quickly to changes in the dynamic world of global transport. We are without the constraints of a multinational parent, yet are of sufficient size to have very good buying power from carriers. Our worldwide network of agents have been carefully selected to ensure that your goods are taken care of ethically and carefully.

Our Tauranga office, located very close to the Port of Tauranga; serves clients in the area with a friendly, efficient, hands-on service for all import and export requirements.
