Crowley Maritime Corporation's history began in 1892 when founder Thomas Crowley purchased one 18-foot Whitehall boat to provide transportation of personnel and supplies to ships anchored on San Francisco Bay. Since its founding in San Francisco more than a century ago, Crowley has grown into a worldwide operation providing a broad range of integrated logistics, marine transportation and related services. The company is family and employee-owned, with approximately 4,500 employees working in offices in major ports and cities around the world. Crowley is organized to provide services in six major segments of operations: Crowley Liner Services provides ocean cargo transportation throughout the U.S., Canada, Puerto Rico, the Caribbean and Central America. The company's vessel services are the most comprehensive in the trades they serve, offering more sailings to more destinations than any other carrier. Crowley Marine Services provides specialized marine transportation and logistics services worldwide, including breakbulk cargo transportation and petroleum tanker transportation through Crowley Petroleum Transport. Crowley Logistics, another operating subsidiary, develops creative and tailored logistics solutions for its client-partners in the U.S., the Caribbean and Latin America. Crowley Technical Services involves supervising construction of new vessels and maintaining ownership of vessels that are chartered for use in Crowleys operating lines of business.
