Geared Chartering
Overview
Geared vessel markets are fragmented, regional and highly cargo-driven, requiring detailed knowledge of trade flows and port conditions.
Our brokers maintain close contact with cargo interests and operators across a wide range of trades, from steel and fertilisers to agricultural and project cargoes. We focus on matching cargo requirements with suitable vessels, taking into account port limitations, cargo handling needs and regional dynamics.
In a market where visibility can be limited, our strength lies in relationships, information flow and practical execution, ensuring cargoes move efficiently across complex regional trades.
