About

Seatrade, the carrier beyond oceans. There is more to transporting perishables than precise temperature control, well-maintained vessels and crews in elegant uniforms. It is all about communication between customers, ships, captains and intermodal partners. Communication keeps you in control. When shipping with Seatrade, you can be sure your cargo will be loaded as planned and arrives in time in excellent condition with service levels as consistent as the temperatures inside the cargo holds. Moving beyond oceans in order to stay ahead. From port-to-port or from door-to-door. More and more, customers look for complete service. Service which does not stop at the port of discharge, but continues on to inland distribution, processing plants or end-users. This is what Seatrade provides. Whatever the weather outside, the condition inside the holds must remain stable. This is why all ships operated by us are equipped with first-class climatic control systems, operated by highly trained engineers. Our present fleet of over 120 ships has been designed for a safe and efficient carriage of perishables, fresh, frozen or otherwise processed fruit, vegetables, bananas, fish or any other commodity, whether loaded break bulk, palletised or in containers. All vessels are equipped with cargo gear that takes care of loading and discharging in any port or place in the world, as well as high seas transhipment. Through sophisticated satellite communication systems, we can monitor cargo condition while en route.

Seatrade is one of the world’s major operators of fully refrigerated vessels. Working through a network of contacts, a fleet of over 120 ships - comprising well over 38 million cubic feet of cargo capacity – is at our command. Seatrade Reefer Chartering, located at the dockside in Antwerp, manages the fleet commercially and operationally, maintaining permanent communications with the vessels and a world-wide network of agents. Whether at sea or in the office, sophisticated technology is important, but even more so the dedication and experience of the people. They ensure a smooth operation 24 hours a day, all year round. The staff includes a team of operators, commercial and technical managers capable of handling any and all aspects of your needs. A network of experienced agents keeps a direct dialogue with customers in key markets.
