Charter a ship for bagged or bulk cargo

Bagged rice, sugar and cement; bulk grain, minerals and coal. Bagged cargo loads at a few thousand tonnes a day, needs ship’s gear, and discharges into ports where a wrong laytime assumption costs the margin on the sale. This desk is built for that parcel, and fixes bulk on the same terms.

What you get

  • A freight quote and a port-cost estimate built from agents’ invoices for the discharge port, before you sign the sale contract.
  • A handysize-to-panamax ship sourced from owners, geared where the cargo or port needs it, contracted in Eximwala’s own name.
  • Stowage plan, dunnage and fumigation arranged; a supercargo on the quay for tally and draft survey.
  • Daily vessel position until discharge is complete.

What we need from you

  • Cargo, and bag size if bagged (25 kg, 50 kg or jumbo)
  • Quantity in tonnes and tolerance
  • Load port and laycan
  • Discharge port and any receiver requirements
  • Sale basis (CIF, CFR or FOB with freight arranged)

Completed voyages are in the fixture record. Owners with open tonnage should use the ship door.
