Transporting dry bulk commodities, particularly iron ore and coal, has been part of our core business for over 100 years. Frachtcontor has long-established business contacts with steel producers and energy companies. We have worked for clients on the cargo side as well as shipowners ever since we were founded.
Your freight specialists
Our teams of experts charter vessels ranging from coasters to giants of over 300,000 dwt operating in the iron ore trade between Brazilian ports and Rotterdam. Approx. 60,000,000 tons of cargo has been chartered through us annually in recent years.
Our clients value our experience, reliability and in particular our all-round service: advising on dry cargo chartering, on the spot market or for long-term business on a voyage or time charter basis, for owners and charterers alike. Apart from iron ore and coal, we handle all types of cargo, e. g. bauxite, cement, grain, fertiliser, steel, timber or even project cargo including heavy lifts.
Maritime services from one supplier
Another advantage is the link to our in-house Agency department, which has its own offices in all major ports from Belgium to Poland. Our Dry Cargo department efficiently combines various cargoes and ship sizes to form the optimal transport chain – and has done so for over 100 years!
