The shipbroking sector continues its consolidation, and SSY now has a clear ambition: to join the circle of the three largest global players. To accelerate, the group has found a powerful lever: the acquisition of Greig Shipbrokers, which will join SSY from January. The amount is not disclosed, but the strategic message is clear: gain size, strengthen client coverage, and expand commercial footprint.

This operation illustrates a market dynamic where critical mass becomes a competitive advantage. In an environment marked by volatility (rates, routes, sanctions, risks), shipowners, charterers, and shippers are looking for intermediaries capable of offering quick execution, solid market information, and a multi-segment presence. Brokers are responding by strengthening their analytical capabilities, networks, and depth of offerings.

By integrating Greig, SSY is aiming for more than just an increase in staff: it’s about accelerating a leadership trajectory, expanding synergies between expertise, and strengthening the ability to support chartering and investment decisions in uncertain cycles. The consolidation, here, becomes a tool for performance: more coverage, more data, more commercial fluidity—and an assumed “Top 3” positioning.
