Port of Dalhousie

Dalhousie, NB · Private · Port of Dalhousie Inc · Bay of Chaleur, at the mouth of the Restigouche River

The Port of Dalhousie is New Brunswick's largest privately owned port, a deep-water facility on the Bay of Chaleur at the mouth of the Restigouche River, operated by Port of Dalhousie Inc. (in business over 135 years and run by a local longshoremen's group, led by CEO/Port Manager Chris Cochrane). It comprises roughly 98 acres of land plus a large waterlot and two cargo facilities: the East Bay Marine Terminal, whose principal cargo is paper, and the West Wharf, which imports petroleum and coal and exports ore concentrates. The port handles dry bulk, break bulk, project cargo and renewable-energy equipment, offers about 73,000 cubic metres of warehouse storage, and markets itself as a congestion-free North Atlantic/Arctic shipping gateway serving northern New Brunswick, the Gaspé, the eastern US, and Western Europe.
