What is a Shipping Agent?
Ship Agents in Bangladesh or Ship Chandlers are those persons who are responsible for supplying necessary ship equipment and other accessories to ships. Basically, a ship chandler is in charge of the sale and retail of any ship. Whenever a ship is in need of any commodities, they contact a Shipping Agent in Bangladesh who provides their service.
Whenever a ship arrives at a port, the ship chandler is the vendor that they reach out to. Ship chandlers are keeping track of the arrival and departure of a ship so that everything is scheduled on time. Ships order whatever is needed for them and the ship chandler arrives with those necessities before the arrival of the ship.
