North Port was one of the distilleries that didn't survive the 1983-85 period, the market at the time was suffering from over capacity and around a dozen single malt distilleries were closed. North Port was mothballed in 1983

In 1990 the site of the distillery was sold for property development, which now hosts a Safeways supermarket

The whisky produced was a contributor to the vatted malt Glen Dew and the Heather Dew blends.
