Solent Stevedores celebrate 25 years
Industry-leading port terminal operator Solent Stevedores celebrates a significant company milestone of 25 years of operations as the company continues to grow.
Over the quarter of a century, the company has added multiple award wins to its name and prestigious recognition in the industry and among peers of the team’s significant role in supporting the import and export of trade.
Since starting the company in 2000 as a small-scale bulk operation at the Port of Southampton, Founder Stuart Cullen has steadily expanded operations across seven locations in the UK, Channel Islands, France and Singapore. Now with a 250-strong team, Solent Stevedores specialises in bulks, project cargo, cruise services, and operating rail and container terminals.
Adding to the significance of the year, 2025 also marks 15 years of cruise operations at the Port of Southampton.
Stuart Cullen, Founder and Executive Chairman, said: “To see how much the company has achieved in 25 years is astonishing. I’m incredibly proud of the exemplary reputation we’ve built and more than anything the excellent team we’ve built and continue to grow around the high standard of operations we carry out daily.”
Managing Director Fiona Robson said: “It’s the people that make Solent Stevedores what it is and we’re really proud of everything we’ve achieved in the last 25 years. We have a few staff members that have been with us since the very beginning, so this milestone becomes even more meaningful. We look forward to continuing to build on our award-winning services.”
