MENTOR SHIPPING'S
History
Mentor Shipping is a family run business that strives to honour long lasting client relationships and service excellence in every step of your cargo journey.
MENTOR SHIPPING AGENCY (PTY) LTD was initially established in 1976 as a subsidiary of DEVONIA SHIPPING (PTY) LTD. In April 1993, the company became fully independent with the shareholding being purchased by Mr. Graham Jones, then Managing Director. In June 2014, his son Mr. Darryl Jones bought the company as Sole Director.
The Jones family have excelled at attracting the confidence of numerous prominent ship owners, traders, charterers and operators worldwide over the past two decades and have taken the company from strength to strength.
More recently, Mentor Shipping is proud to have expanded our role from being primarily a shipping agency to also include cargo handling, clearing, forwarding, transport and hospitality.
