01Fleet and capacity

Asset-light global forwarder focused on service quality.

Fleet development is driven by bunker prices, IMO decarbonisation requirements (EEXI/CII) and shipbuilding cycles. Newbuilds are increasingly dual-fuel on LNG, methanol or ammonia.

02Network and alliance

350+ locations in 100+ countries.

Alliance membership (OCEAN Alliance, THE Alliance, Gemini Cooperation from 2025) determines liner services, shared slots and hub strategies. Shippers should know which ports are called directly and which transhipments are typical.

03Services and products

Ocean, air, customs, distribution, order management.

As with every major carrier, specific offerings, contract terms and performance KPIs should be matched to your own volume and routing. The best offer is not necessarily the lowest tariff.
