Our role in dry bulk chartering
Kiev Shipping Ltd arranges dry bulk chartering and sea freight brokerage for bulk cargoes worldwide.
We do not own vessels. We work as experienced shipbrokers and charter suitable tonnage through the international freight market according to cargo, quantity, route, laycan, port restrictions and current market conditions.
For bagged and steel cargoes see also breakbulk cargo chartering; for heavy and oversized units — project cargo chartering.
For a freight indication, please send us:
- cargo name;
- its stowage factor;
- quantity;
- loading port;
- discharging port;
- laycan.
