A proud part of South Canterbury since 1894
with a long association with the sea
and a reputation for quality service and advice
In October, 1894, a 26 year old David Turnbull commenced business as a grain and seed merchant.
Exporting grain led to an expansion into shipping as owners, agents and stevedores.
A century later the company continues to provide a personalised service to farmers through its subsidiaries.
