History

Pola Maritime was established in 2006 in Europe with offices in Belgium and Cyprus to service close clients focusing on steel, grain and fertilizer shipments between the Baltic and South American range. The company started with a few ships and over a period of more than 10 years has grown its fleet to around 50 vessels (owned and chartered). These circumnavigate the globe servicing routes all year round whatever the season.

Pola Maritime has become a world renowned international dry bulk carrier, specializing in Handy to Panamax sizes and operates on short and long period time charters as well as cargo contracts.

Pola today

Pola Maritime is now regarded as one of the leading boutique international ship owning companies with offices in strategic locations, enabling it to better support its clients who are managed by an experienced team of shipping executives.

With cargo volumes and clients’ needs increasing, the company is expanding its operations as well as its team. This is to streamline the business model and operate in a much more efficient, transparent and proactive way.

Market research and analysis can be provided as an additional service to clients seeking more information about the commodities market, most efficient trade routes and identification of new business opportunities within mature markets, and emerging markets where access to information can be limited.

Requirements for dry bulk goods change constantly and being reactive with the right information is critical to limiting any exposure to risk.

Transported
commodities

We primarily transport commodities for the dry bulk market and these have increased in volume over the years to include: ores, coal, grains, steels, agricultural products, sugar, bauxite, alumina, fertilizers, wood products, logs and others.

Where relationships with our close clients are long standing, we can consider absorbing the risk of exposure for loading and discharging cargo in terms of demurrage by providing CQD (Customary Quick Despatch).
