Company Profile

A key element in providing full-service transportation to our customers is in our vessel chartering arena. Through our charter brokerage service, Sumisho Global helps our customers to develop, negotiate and arrange suitable vessels to carry their specific bulk cargoes. Whether your bulk shipment is destined for domestic or international ports, we’ll follow through to ensure the smoothest operation possible.

For your existing trade lanes, or in development of new lanes, our chartering teams in New York, Tokyo and Dusseldorf are eager to assist you in these activities. Our current core charter trade is in the transportation of steel products (e.g., steel coils, billets, pipes, wire rod), grain products, mineral sands, fertilizers, petroleum coke, alumina, ferrous minerals, cement and clinkers. Through our direct contact with various chemical tanker owners, we support our clients in export and import of liquid chemical shipments as well.

Again, with our history in worldwide trade, SGL possesses the expertise to handle your chartering business well.
