ANKASEA SAC is a specialized maritime and logistics services provider established in Peru. Headquartered in the San Isidro district of Lima, the company has been operational since May 2012, serving as a strategic link between global shipping principals and the Peruvian export and import markets. The firm functions primarily as a shipping agency, delivering a comprehensive suite of solutions that encompass vessel husbandry, commercial representation, and logistical coordination across all major Peruvian port terminals.
As a general and commercial agency, ANKASEA SAC represents the interests of ship owners, managers, and charterers. Its operational scope covers the entire Peruvian coastline, where it facilitates the smooth turnaround of vessels. The company’s port agency division handles essential routine tasks, including the arrangement of essential supplies, crew transfers, customs documentation, and waste declarations. This ensures that vessels meet local regulatory requirements and maintain efficient schedules while in port. The organization acts as the local representative for various international shipping lines, maintaining a particularly strong connection to specialized shipping networks.
A significant portion of the company’s expertise lies in the handling of refrigerated cargo and perishables, a critical sector for Peru’s agricultural export economy. ANKASEA SAC provides extensive cargo services and stevedoring support, which involves pre-shipment surveys, quality control, and stowage supervision. These technical services are designed to protect the integrity of sensitive goods, such as fresh fruit, during loading and transport. The firm’s capabilities extend to maritime inspections, where it conducts assessments of vessel equipment, hull and machinery conditions, and fuel consumption.
Beyond the immediate port interface, the company operates as an intermodal logistics provider. It coordinates the movement of containers from packing houses to port terminals, managing trucking services, customs procedures, and the specific requirements of cold chain logistics, such as the installation of thermographs and filters. The company also offers brokerage services, connecting cargo charterers with ship owners for European and American trade routes. Additionally, ANKASEA SAC coordinates technical marine services, including certified diving operations and bunkering arrangements, ensuring that vessels receive necessary maintenance and fuel supplies while in Peruvian waters. Through these multifaceted operations, the company supports the continuous flow of maritime commerce connecting Peru to international markets.
