[Chatham, NJ – June 2, 2026] – Shipco Transport, one of the world’s leading neutral NVOCCs, is pleased to announce the opening of a new office in Piraeus, Greece. This expansion strengthens Shipco’s presence in a strategically important logistics market and creates a local gateway to serve the Greek forwarding community.
This key move is underscored by Greece’s geographic location, which makes it an important hub for global trade, connecting Europe, the Middle East, and North Africa. The country also serves as a natural entry point for imports from the Far East and as a gateway to the Balkans region.
To support these trade flows, Shipco Greece provides a full range of services, including LCL and FCL ocean freight, air freight, multimodal, and cross-trade services for imports and exports, all supported by worldwide coverage. Forwarders benefit from Shipco’s global footprint, spanning more than 90 offices and over 2,600 direct weekly consolidation services, and further supported by digital tools that enhance visibility and operational efficiency.
Beyond global scale, Shipco’s operations are designed to deliver predictable and reliable services, transparent pricing and processes, and long‑term partnerships built on trust and consistency. By combining local expertise with global reach, the organization aims to make cooperation simpler, faster, and more direct for forwarding partners.
“This commitment reflects Shipco’s belief in the growth potential of the Greek logistics market and its role in regional consolidation,” says Panos Papadimitriou, General Manager of Shipco Greece. “We come to Greece to work alongside the local forwarding community as a neutral partner. Our forwarder partners can confidently grow their business, knowing Shipco will never approach or compete for their customers. We respect the experience and relationships already in place, and our role is to complement them by bringing global connectivity, consistency, and transparency closer to the market.”
