S4M Shipping
Passion for shipping
S4M stands for “Solutions for Maritime” – it is one small sentence explaining the large amount of activities and services we are providing to the global maritime industry. Driven by people with a true passion for shipping and many years of working experience in different fields, we try to make a difference with our ability to think “outside the box”.
About S4M Shipping
Established in the Netherlands in 2016 as a part of the S4M Group of Companies, we we have rapidly evolved from a traditional shipbroking company to a multi functional shipping entity and maritme logistics experts.
We are active in deep sea and coastal shipping activities around the globe but particularly in Europe and West Africa, with focus on oil and chemical tankers and containerised goods.
Today we are holding a strong presence in West Africa with offices in Cameroon, Nigeria and Ghana as part of our group of companies. Our portfolio is not only listing oil major companies but also smaller trading houses and African government entities.

-The management
We must free ourselves of the hope that the sea will ever rest. We must learn to sail in high winds.
Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.
There is nothing absolutely nothing half so much worth doing as simply messing about in boats.
