How We Work
From your inquiry
From your inquiry
to delivered cargo —
every step managed.
We work on a time charter basis — meaning you pay only for actual vessel time used, not the market's risk buffers. Every cost is calculated, not estimated. Every saving goes to you.
01
You send us cargo details
Route, quantity, laycan. We calculate the optimal parcel size, vessel type and all port restrictions — and return a rate within 2 hours.
02
We charter the vessel
We act as operator — hiring the vessel on time charter, calculating exact bunker costs, canal dues and port expenses for your voyage.
03
We manage the voyage
Full operational control — masters, port agents, terminals. Every call, every issue. You stay focused on your cargo, not the ship.
04
One invoice, full report
All parties paid by us. You receive one invoice and a complete voyage financial report. Total transparency, zero paperwork.
Why this is cheaper than voyage charter
Pay for actual time, not estimated
Voyage charter includes buffers for every possible delay. TCT charges only for days actually used — faster voyage means lower cost.
Optimal vessel, zero waste
We match vessel size to your exact cargo and port restrictions. No oversized hire, no wasted capacity.
Costs calculated, not guessed
Exact bunker grades and quantities, SECA zones, canal dues, port costs — everything calculated to the dollar.
We work for you, not the market
As your operator we are contractually aligned with reducing your cost — every saving on the voyage goes directly to you.

Knowledge Base
Frequently asked
Frequently asked
questions
In voyage charter you pay a fixed rate per MT and the shipowner covers all costs — including a buffer for every risk. In time charter you hire the vessel for a period and pay daily hire — AGRIX manages all operational costs. The total is typically significantly lower because you pay only for actual days used and we optimise every cost component.
For standard routes (Black Sea to Africa, Middle East, India) we provide preliminary indicative rates within 2 hours. For custom routes or specific vessel requirements, a full calculation with vessel options and port cost breakdown is delivered within 24 hours.
We specialise in all major bulk grains: wheat (milling and feed), barley, corn/maize, sunflower meal, rapeseed meal and soybeans. We calculate optimal solutions for any grain type and stowage factor.
We work across all Handysize, Handymax, Supramax and Ultramax bulk carriers — 25,000 to 65,000+ DWT. We select the optimal size for your cargo volume, port draft restrictions and terminal capabilities. Vessel size optimisation is one of our key cost-saving tools.
You pay only AGRIX — one counterparty, one invoice. We distribute payments to the shipowner, port agents, fuel suppliers, canal authorities and all other parties. At completion you receive a full financial statement showing every expense item.
For a preliminary rate: cargo type and quantity (MT), loading port, destination port, and approximate laycan. For a firm quote we also need loading/discharging norms, any vessel restrictions at your terminal (max LOA, beam, draft) and preferred payment terms.
Yes. AGRIX is registered with BIMCO (Baltic and International Maritime Council), membership number 181628 — the world's largest international shipping association. Membership signals compliance with international maritime standards and best practices in chartering.
We operate from any loading port worldwide. We select the optimal port based on cargo origin, vessel availability and port costs.
