Trade is the cornerstone of global civilization. Since humans first set out to sea with goods to trade, the shipping industry has continually worked to minimize uncertainty and risk inherent in ocean transportation, enabling efficient trade. At Burmester & Vogel we are charting a similar course to solve a persistent source of uncertainty inherent in every voyage: demurrage.
At the heart of BV is a vision to transform demurrage from an unpredictable and manual, time-consuming process to a fast, efficient and digitally-enabled process thereby creating a world where demurrage can be accurately planned for and quickly settled.
BV's commitment to continuous learning and innovation allows us to stay ahead of the curve and provide cutting-edge solutions that meet the evolving needs of our customers.
We believe in building long-term relationships with our clients based on trust, transparency, and integrity.
Demurrage is so fundamental to trade that it impacts the commodity cost of the staples that underpin the world's economy. By minimizing the uncertainty, cost and risk associated with demurrage, the impact of our work will resonate beyond the maritime shipping industry, from global producers to end consumers around the world.
