Crowley reports that it has expanded its harbor services capabilities through the acquisition of Main Line Inc., a vessel mooring company based in Seattle, effective Jan. 1.
The company stated on Thursday that the addition of Main Line will provide its customers calling on the ports of Seattle and Tacoma, Washington, “with a comprehensive solution for their vessel mooring and ship assist needs.”
Financial details of the transaction were not disclosed. Main Line staff members are transitioning to Crowley as part of the asset purchase agreement, the company’s statement reads.
Crowley, founded in 1892, is a privately-held, U.S.-owned and operated logistics, marine and energy solutions company serving commercial and government customers that is headquartered in Jacksonville, Florida.
On the other hand, Main Line is a longtime provider of vessel mooring services in the Pacific Northwest.
