COMMERCIAL MANAGEMENT

Our fleet consists of 13–17 bulkers with a healthy mix of commercially managed, single-trip, and short- and long-term chartered vessels with a focus on modern Handysize, Supramax, and Ultramax vessels.

We offer our chartering services and smart shipping solutions to third parties who are looking to optimize revenues on their assets. Depending on our clients’ risk appetite and factoring in the market conditions, we engage the assets by actively trading them on the spot market or covering them on period charters. Our chartering and operations team is a well-versed, diversified, and experienced team spread across the globe and is actively engaged with the vessel and clients’ needs round the clock.

Our shipping expertise and wide geographical presence gives us a competitive edge over our peers.

Our management philosophy—Our people, your strength—is centered on people: those we employ and those we serve.
