List Of Popular Shipping Companies In Lagos & Port Harcourt Nigeria And Their Websites

Shipping companies are organizations which specialize in the movement of goods. For this purpose they own vessels which they use in moving cargo from one place to another.

Shipping is a method of transport which gained popularity sometime in the nineteenth century and it is a business which many participate in till date. At inception, shipping lines majorly operated on European waters and its environments. It gradually made its way to other parts of the world including Nigeria.

The Nigerian National Shipping Line was a shipping company partly owned by the Nigerian government which kicked off in 1959 and was not fully acquired by Nigeria until 1961. However until its collapse in 1995 due to gross mismanagement, it was never really a match for the likes of the European lines in terms of efficiency and performance.

It took up a new identity of the National Unity Line which was eventually sold in 2005 as it no longer had any vessels to its name only a shipping license. The Nigerian Shipping Line can be termed as a pioneer shipping line in Nigeria.

Shipping companies provide domestic as well as international shipping services. Though the word shipping is supposed to mean the conveying of good over the ocean, it is now being used when referring to the movement of goods by road and air as well.

These companies mostly have structures in place for not only moving goods over the ocean, but also for the movement of goods using railways, roads, and airways depending on certain conditions like location, time frame which goods should be delivered, the nature of the goods, quantity and such. For this purpose shipping companies mostly have shipping agents and agencies which they are in alliance with who carry out such tasks on their behalf.
