The milestone of what is today
the SOPISCO
group of companies has been the Ecuadorian office,
which started its activity in 1992 in Guayaquil, the
main port of the leading banana exporting country
of the world. Founded by Italian shipping professionals
with many years of experience in the reefer and shipping
industry, at the beginning the company was entirely
dedicated to the chartering of reefer vessels and
banana trading.
UNLIMITED SERVICES
Today SOPISCO is a truly global group of companies,
with operating branches in Panama, Greece, Spain,
Ecuador, Lithuania, China, Senegal, Haiti,Tunisia,
and Bangladesh.
The company's core activities are as brokers and agents
specializing in reefer ships and fruit, but also covering
all the other segments of the shipping industry including:
agency, chartering, stevedoring, etc.
