How Our
Journey Started
Braid’s journey started in 2007, focusing on bulk liquids in New Zealand. We grew quickly, becoming an exclusion zone agency in 2009 and a leader in import handling. A turning point came in 2015 with BOC Gases (now Linde), sparking our expertise in cryogenic operations. This led us to become the regional cryogenic gas gateway for the Pacific Islands. Today, our 12-person team tackles diverse cargo across Asia Pacific, from hazardous materials to complex supply chains.
