Its extensive network covers over 85% of the world's ports, supported by its network of port agents and partner companies.
Despite its long-standing presence, Inchcape stays ahead by embracing diversity initiatives and prioritising workforce welfare. Recognising the unique health and financial needs of shipping industry workers and their families, Inchcape leverages its extensive maritime experience to provide exceptional care for its employees. Additionally, the company has developed industry-leading visualisation software that offers customers real-time information on their vessels and ports.
Inchcape was acquired by Epiris in early 2022, a London-based equity firm, which has spurred its expansion into new market sectors, including the acquisition of Belgium's Kennedy Hunter NV. The company also announced the opening of a new office in Busan, South Korea, enhancing its global reach. Under Epiris' guidance, Inchcape plans to continue making strategic acquisitions to grow its network and operational expertise. Shifts in the C-suite means Svend Andersen was appointed as the new CCO bringing a fresh perspective to lead the company through this next phase of growth.
