Background of Romcargo Maritim
Romcargo Maritim is a Romanian company established in 2006, following a split of the mother
company, Carpat Cargo, a large freight forwarder of Romania. Carpat Cargo acted as the
expedition company of Arcelor Mittal Steel factory in Galati, and handled volumes of 6-8 milion
tonnes / year transported by railway.
In 2007 Romcargo Maritim started a large investment plan for opening the first dedicated Roll-on
Roll-off terminal in the Constanta Harbor, addressed to the growing needs of Romanian and
foreign vehicle producers and importers.
RO-RO activity started on 1st January 2008 in Constanta Port, with an initial area of 57.000 sqm.
In 2008 and 2009, we extended our main terminal reaching 85.000 sqm. In February 2010 we
opened our secondary terminal (30.000 sqm in Constanta Port) reaching a total area of 105.000
sqm.
Currently, we handle all major maritime imports of passenger and utility vehicles to Romania,
including Ford, Peugeot, Citroen, Renault, Nissan, and maritime exports of Dacia and Ford
vehicles. Also, we provide services for vehicles in transit, towards Ukraine and Russia. Among
our clients we have several logistics companies like TradisaStigler, Gefco, Lagermax, Omsan
Logistics, Avtologistika LTD.

• The connection over the Black Sea has been for long time the missing link between
the gates of EU and the Caspian countries, and further, to Middle East and Asia. The
Silk Road project, mentioned in many EU projects lacked the Black Sea component,
the connection between Constanta Port and the Port of Poti in Georgia. Romcargo
Maritim and UKR Ferry started in May 2013 the first regular ferry service for this route,
addressed to a growing market in the Caspian area and providing faster transit time
and reduced costs.
• The ferryline will decrease transit time and logistics costs for all kind of goods and
commodities exchanged between European Union and Caspian countries and
beyond. Old routes meant that the goods were transported by train from central
Europe to Antwerp or Rotterdam, placed in containers, shipped via mother vessels to
Turkey, trans-shipped to feeders and delivered after 45 days to Georgian ports.
• Our solution, with railway transport from Central Europe to Constanta, and ferryboat
connection to Poti Georgia, means only 15 days transit time and also reduces the
logistics costs.
• Any logistics company or traders exporting or importing in Caspian countries from the
EU could benefit from the services of this ferryboat connection.
