Shipex

In January 2025, Shipex, a leading freight forwarder based in Antwerp, welcomed Sofindev as a strategic partner to support further growth and strengthen its leadership in reefer logistics. Bram De Schepper remains as the managing director, responsible for the daily management of Shipex. Together with the other shareholders, who are part of the management team and are increasing their stake, they emphasize their strong commitment to the future of Shipex.

With the help of Sofindev, the management has the ambition to broaden into new end markets, further expand the customer base, and accelerate the internationalization efforts to solidify Shipex's position as a leader in the cold chain logistics sector.

For many years, Shipex has been providing comprehensive freight forwarding services across the entire value chain to facilitate the smooth movements of goods across international borders. These include transportation management, customs brokerage, documentation handling, expert guidance on trade finance, and efficient handling of administrative processes. These services are further supported by the company’s innovative in-house digital platform, enabling transport tracking, data analytics, emission tracking, and more.

The company also provides specialized consultancy services, including goods and transport insurance and claims management. This extensive portfolio of high-quality services positions Shipex as the trusted and preferred partner for its clients.
