Our philosophy

Inspired by progress, driven by ambition

At comerTra we aim for more than customer satisfaction – we want to inspire. Our goal is to deliver ideas and solutions that not only advance our customers' business but also convince their customers.

Our history

At your side since 2012

comerTra was founded in 2012 in Papenburg in the Emsland region, and remains an owner-managed company to this day. From the very beginning, technical competence, reliable logistics and a high quality standard have been at the heart of everything we do.

From Papenburg, we today supply shipping companies, vessel operators and industrial clients – bundled into three business units: comerTra Maritime, comerTra Shipping and comerTra Trading.
