Based in the Republic of Panama, Logistic Int. Services Corp. serves the global maritime sector as a specialized provider of workforce solutions, regulatory training, and agency support. Established in October 2008, the company operates with a strategic focus on the human and operational requirements of the shipping industry, leveraging its location near one of the world’s most critical maritime arteries, the Panama Canal. The organization functions primarily as a bridge between qualified maritime personnel and international shipowners, addressing the complex logistical challenges of crew management and vessel administration.
A central pillar of the company’s operations is its role as a recruitment and placement agency. It connects seafarers with employment opportunities across various segments of the marine industry, including the commercial merchant fleet and the cruise ship sector. The company manages the sourcing and vetting of candidates for a wide array of onboard positions, ranging from deck and engine officers to hospitality staff such as technicians, cooks, and service personnel. In line with international standards, the organization adheres to the Maritime Labour Convention (MLC) 2006, ensuring that recruitment practices maintain fair working conditions and that seafarers are not charged placement fees.
Beyond recruitment, Logistic Int. Services Corp. is deeply involved in maritime education and competency certification. Through strategic partnerships with training entities, such as the Maritime Professional Institute of Panama, the company facilitates access to essential nautical courses. These programs are designed to meet International Maritime Organization (IMO) standards, covering critical areas such as STCW ’78 compliance, safety familiarization, and security awareness. By prioritizing training, the firm ensures that the personnel it places are certified and prepared to handle the hazards and regulatory demands of life at sea.
The company also extends its expertise to vessel operations within the Panama region. Acting as a maritime agency, it provides advisory services related to Panama Canal transits, helping operators navigate local regulations, tolls assessments, and transit logistics. This combination of crew management, professional training, and local agency support allows Logistic Int. Services Corp. to offer a comprehensive support structure for vessels operating in or transiting through Panamanian waters.
