[Port of Spain, Trinidad and Tobago] – Shipco Transport, one of the world’s leading neutral NVOCCs, is celebrating five years of operations in Trinidad and Tobago. The branch office has established a strong local presence through delivering customer-centric freight solutions, leveraging the organization’s robust global network, and applying deep industry expertise alongside comprehensive local market knowledge.
“Local freight forwarders were initially skeptical, seeing us as competition,” says Julian Sammy, Director of Sales, Caribbean. “By consistently demonstrating our neutrality, local forwarders started trusting us and began providing opportunities on their nominations. Coupled with our commitment to exceeding their expectations in customer service, our volumes organically grew.”
For the past five years, the branch has been continually expanding their services, including to the Caribbean, AIR, LCL, and project moves to better serve their forwarder customers.
“This 5-year mark signifies our ongoing commitment to providing neutral, reliable and efficient logistics solutions in Trinidad & Tobago,” says Cristal Retess, Shipco’s Office Manager. “We are deeply grateful to our customers as reaching this milestone reflects the trust and confidence our customers have placed in us to handle their logistics needs effectively.”
Shipco Trinidad and Tobago remains committed to the same level of dedication and expertise that has characterized its first five years. “To our customers, we deeply appreciate your trust and partnership. We value you and we remain committed to delivering exceptional service. To our staff, your commitment and diligence has been the basis of our success,” Sammy acknowledges.
To celebrate this milestone, Shipco Trinidad and Tobago will host a commemorative event bringing together dignitaries, customers, partners, and employees to recognize the occasion.
