Our Process

How We Execute a Fixture

Cargo / Position Brief

Client provides cargo details or vessel position requirements. We review market conditions and identify optimal counterparties.

Market Canvassing

We canvas our global network of owners, operators and charterers to identify the best available options and gauge market appetite.

Negotiation

Our team negotiates all commercial terms — freight, laycan, speed, consumption, and special clauses — to secure the best possible deal.

Fixture Recap

A clean recap is circulated covering all agreed main terms. We handle all correspondence until the charter party is fully executed.

Voyage Execution

Post-fixture, we monitor voyage progress, coordinate with agents and surveyors, and handle any operational issues that arise.
