The North Coast Steam Navigation Company was a shipping company that operated in Australia.[1] Formed as the Grafton Steam Navigation Company in 1855.[2] The company was later renamed the Clarence & Richmond River Steam Navigation Company before being renamed in December 1888 as the Clarence, Richmond & MacLeay River Steam Navigation Company.
On 13 August 1891, the company merged with John See and Company on and was renamed as the North Coast Steam Navigation Company and was based in Sydney. During 1920, the company merged with Allan Taylor & Company and continued to operate the fleets under their own names. The company acquired Langley Bros in 1925 and bought the remaining fleet of the Coastal Co-Operative Steamship Company in 1929. The company further acquired the Port Stephens Steamship Company in 1940.
The North Coast Steam Navigation Company continued to operate until 1954 and went into voluntary liquidation due to rising costs and unfavourable industrial conditions.[3]
