BIMCO – the practical voice of shipping
Facilitating trade is at the very heart of our business, and since 1905, we’ve helped our members keep world trade moving. We make it our business to help our members with theirs.
BIMCO members cover 62% of the global fleet and consist of local, global, small, and large companies. We are an organisation and global shipping community of over 2,000 members in around 130 countries.
From our offices in Houston, London, Copenhagen, Athens, Brussels, Singapore and Shanghai we aim to help build a resilient industry in a sustainable future whilst protecting world trade. We do this by finding practical solutions for our members to help them manage risk in a changing world.
