Global Perspective

A U.S. Base. An International Outlook.

Inter Ocean explores trading opportunities across countries and industries, bringing a broader perspective to the purchasing needs of American businesses.

Our Trading Model

International Trade, From the Commercial Side.

Ships, ports and routes are part of the landscape of international trade — but our role is commercial. Inter Ocean buys and sells goods, and every opportunity we pursue starts with a business question: does this transaction make sense?

What we are

An international trading company

  • We buy and sell goods across borders
  • We focus on the purchasing needs of U.S. businesses
  • We work across multiple product categories and industries
  • We evaluate specific opportunities presented by buyers

What we are not

A logistics service provider

  • Not a freight forwarder or shipping line
  • Not a container-tracking or customs-clearance service
  • Not a marketplace or brokerage platform

Between Markets

Different Origins. Different Products.

One clear focus: business that makes sense.

The right product isn't always found in the nearest market. By looking beyond a single origin, we can consider a wider range of options when evaluating what a U.S. buyer is looking for.
