Some of our history...

The Company was formed in 1978 by Tom Hodge and Ken Jaffa. Our first Liner
Agency appointment was LCA serving West Africa with regular conventional
vessels and this was later replaced by BACO LINER until these Liners were
retired early 2013.

We now have the privilege to represent the Hartmann Group with their newly
Launched HPL service to West Africa thus allowing us to continue serving
this very important region.

A short while later our agency was strengthened with the inclusion of two
other Liner services: Flamar (now OXL / Flamar), who operate regular modern
multipurpose vessels to North Africa and Eastern Med and Jordan National
Line, who offered monthly sailings to Aqaba and other Red Sea destinations.

ABOUT US...

Our core business is Africa, especially Nigeria, and with over 35 years of experience we

Today we offer clients a complete service through professional staff who
have grown with the company and the trade routes served.
