Crowley Maritime
Crowley, legally Crowley Maritime Corporation, is an American transportation and logistics company based in Jacksonville, Florida.
As of July 2016, Crowley was ranked as the 13th largest private company in Florida, employing approximately 5,300 people worldwide with revenues of $2.2 billion. It provides its services using a fleet of more than 300 vessels, consisting of RO-RO vessels, LO-LO vessels, tankers, Articulated Tug-Barges (ATBs), tugs and barges. Crowley's land-based facilities and equipment include terminals, warehouses, tank farms, and specialized vehicles. The company also provides the Thomas B. Crowley Sr. Memorial Scholarship each year to exceptional maritime students.
Crowley was founded in 1892 when founder Thomas Crowley, purchased an 18-foot Whitehall Rowboat to provide transportation of personnel and supplies to ships anchored on San Francisco Bay.
The company was incorporated under the name Thomas Crowley and Brothers in the later 1890s and within a few years, services broadened to include bay wing and ship assistance services.
In mid-1994, following the passing of his father, Thomas B. Crowley, Jr. was elected president, chairman of the board, and chief executive officer.
In 2010, following the 7.0 Haiti earthquake that affected more than 3 million people and caused major damage in Port-au-Prince, Crowley (working under contract with the United States Transportation Command (USTRANSCOM)), re-established cargo operations in Haiti, allowing humanitarian relief from multiple shippers to enter the country. Crowley and its employees then donated $80,000 to the American Red Cross in support of Haiti relief efforts and transported an estimated 15,000 emergency housing units to the island.
In Dec. 2010, Crowley's Alaska fuel sales and distribution enterprise added eight Shell Oil service stations to its wholesale network. Under the agreement, Crowley had responsibility for the wholesale purchases of Shell motor fuel and transporting, distributing and selling the fuel to 17 independently owned and operated sites in Alaska.
In 2018, VT Halter Maritime delivered the first of two Commitment Class, LNG-powered Combination RORO (ConRo) ships, the El Coquí. The ship measures 219.5m long with a 26,500 deadweight tons. It can transport up to 2,400 TEU at a cruising speed of 22 knots. The Coquí sister ship, Taino, was delivered in January 2019.
