ABOUT US

International Shipping Agency, Inc. (INTERSHIP) is a stevedoring contractor and terminal operator, founded in 1961.

We are a wholly owned affiliate of Méndez & Company, who’s been in business for over 100 years. Méndez & Co. is one of the major distributors of food and spirits and brands like Heineken, Miller, Johnnie Walker Black, Grey Goose, Stolichnaya, Veuve Clicqout, and over 150 varieties of wines from all over the world. They also distribute products coming from the United States such as General Mills, Beech Nut, Tabasco, Sargento Cheese, Bumble Bee, and others.

Recognizing the need for an integrated state-of-the-art container handling facility for San Juan's busy import and export trade, back in 1961 a group of professionals created what has become today the leading company in the maritime industry: INTERSHIP.

The secret of INTERSHIP’S success is simple: the best infrastructure and investment of over $30 million in the latest equipment and technology; unparalleled expertise; a motivated work force; and a relentless commitment to fast service and customer satisfaction.
