Cadiship SL functions as an independent maritime agency and comprehensive logistics provider, deeply rooted in the shipping infrastructure of Southern Spain. Established in 1995 in the historic port city of Cádiz, the company was founded to address the complex requirements of vessel operators and owners navigating the region. Over the decades, it has evolved from a local agency into a regional operator with a presence across the primary maritime hubs of Andalusia and the Strait of Gibraltar.
The company’s operational footprint extends well beyond its headquarters, covering essential ports such as Algeciras, Huelva, Seville, Málaga, and Ceuta. This strategic positioning allows Cadiship SL to service vessels transiting one of the world's busiest shipping lanes, bridging the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea. Its geographic scope ensures that the firm can attend to ships calling at diverse terminals, whether for cargo operations, bunkers, or technical stops.
At the core of Cadiship’s activities is its ship agency division, which acts as the local representative for global shipowners. The company manages the logistical and administrative intricacies of port calls for a wide spectrum of vessel types, including bulk carriers, tankers, ro-ro ships, and cruise liners. The firm also possesses specialized experience in supporting the offshore sector and attending to vessels undergoing repairs or dry-docking in the Bay of Cádiz. Operational teams work to coordinate essential husbandry services, facilitating crew changes, medical assistance, visa processing, and the delivery of provisions and technical spares.
Beyond direct vessel attendance, Cadiship SL integrates freight forwarding and customs brokerage into its service portfolio. Holding status as an Authorised Economic Operator (AEO), the company navigates the regulatory landscape of import and export procedures, ensuring compliance for goods entering or leaving the European Union. Its logistics capabilities encompass stevedoring and cargo handling, where it oversees the manipulation of general cargo, project freight, and solid or liquid bulk. Furthermore, the company engages in chartering activities, connecting cargo interests with suitable tonnage. Through these multifaceted operations, Cadiship SL serves as a critical node in the maritime supply chain, ensuring the seamless flow of commerce and technical support throughout Southern Spain’s coastal network.
