Kiev Shipping Ltd.: Two Decades of Leadership in Bulk Cargo Chartering by Sea
Since its founding in 2000, Kiev Shipping Ltd. has established itself as a leading international maritime broker in the transportation of bulk cargoes. For over two decades, we have consistently delivered world-class solutions in sea freight chartering, connecting global producers, traders, and logistics firms with the right vessels, routes, and schedules. Our unwavering focus on reliability, professionalism, and efficiency has made us a trusted partner in the transportation of grain, coal, fertilizers, ores, and other key bulk commodities.
A Track Record Built on Trust and Expertise
From the very beginning, our mission has been to provide dependable vessel chartering services to companies seeking a seamless way to move large volumes of bulk materials by sea. With hundreds of successful fixtures completed across major trade routes, Kiev Shipping Ltd. is synonymous with experience, reliability, and deep industry knowledge.
We have spent the last 24+ years working with a vast network of vessel owners, charterers, port operators, and freight forwarders to ensure our clients always receive the most suitable ship at the right time, on the best possible terms.
Whether you’re moving 50,000 metric tons of wheat from the Black Sea to Southeast Asia, or 25,000 tons of coal from Indonesia to India, we have the market insight and brokerage capacity to execute the operation with precision.
Specialization in Bulk Cargo Movements
Bulk cargo transportation is a highly specialized segment of the maritime industry. Unlike containerized freight, bulk goods—like wheat, corn, barley, coal, potash, urea, cement, and bauxite—require specific ship types (bulk carriers), port capabilities, and cargo handling expertise. Kiev Shipping Ltd. stands at the forefront of this niche market.
Our focus includes:
- Grain and agricultural products in bulk (wheat, corn, barley, soybeans)
- Coal and coke shipments
- Mineral fertilizers (DAP, MAP, urea, potassium chloride)
- Metal ores and concentrates
- Cement and clinker
- Biomass cargoes (pellets, woodchips)
- Salt and other non-hazardous dry bulk commodities
We charter Handysize, Supramax, Panamax, and Ultramax vessels, matching your cargo volumes with optimal tonnage ranging from 3,000 to 75,000 deadweight tons.
Worldwide Bulk Cargo Coverage
Kiev Shipping Ltd. provides bulk shipping solutions on all major and niche trade routes. We handle short sea shipments within the Mediterranean and Black Sea, as well as deep-sea transoceanic shipments across the Atlantic and Pacific.
