With 2018 almost over we are concentrating on getting shipments packed on vessels before we shut down for the Christmas/New Break.  Barenbrug export shipping department will be closed from Monday 24th December returning Wednesday 2nd January.  During this time if you require anything urgent Mel Parish can be contacted via email or mobile.

 

We haven’t experienced any issues with vessel space or equipment availability for this time of year.  Most shipping rates have stayed consistent altho have had notification of general rate increases early 2019.  Generally this time of year most ports experience congestion so you may need to monitor the arrival dates into your destination port for any delays.

 

Shipping lines are enforcing Consignee details to include companies TAX/VAT number, Telephone & email contacts so keeping our records up to date is important. Please keep us up to date with any changes to contact details.  If you have a preferred Notify Party you would like stated on your bill of lading email us on below address and we can update your file to have your preferred Notify Party stated on the bill of lading.
