Logistics & Transport
Ports, shipping, freight and inland transport — including a Chattogram practice running since 1987.
Bangladesh's trade moves overwhelmingly through Chattogram, where the firm has had an office since 1987. The work spans admiralty and cargo claims, port and terminal arrangements, freight contracting and the regulatory side of vessel import and recycling.
We act for carriers, cargo interests, terminal operators, freight forwarders and insurers.
