Jumbo Shipping and SAL Heavy Lift launch Jumbo-SAL-Alliance

Today Jumbo Shipping, the Dutch maritime heavy lift transport and engineering contractor, and SAL Heavy Lift, the German-based breakbulk and project cargo specialist, commence operations with their joint venture as the Jumbo-SAL-Alliance.

To serve clients worldwide, the joint venture acts as the single commercial entry point for its joint sales network of offices and agents in 20+ countries. Significantly, it handles the complete marketing of 30 highly versatile project cargo vessels with lifting capacities up to 3,000 t SWL, marking it as the largest fleet in the 800+ t sector.

This ensures availability, flexibility and the right transport concept at the right time for customers seeking reliable and high quality shipping solutions.

The joint venture was cleared by the German competition authority earlier this month. The two companies share 90+ years of combined experience, are both family-owned and managed and are among the world’s most prominent and technically advanced heavy lift carriers.

Both SAL and Jumbo continue as independent operators and vessel owners and both remain active brands in the market.
