Shipbrokering.com, a WEB Site Co. based in Montreal, Quebec - Canada which provides a suite of tools, dedicated to offer shipbroking applications to today's evolving marine community, offering to handle day to day workload more efficiently through their database of orders browsing cargoes, vessels, time charter and sale & purchase requirements has recently entered into container business by establishing www.SlotCharter.com

As announced in their WEB Site, Shipbrokering.com has launched its new Auction and Exchange site for repositioning requirements of leasing companies and liner operators worldwide.

The site with domain www.SlotCharter.com will provide a market place for leasing companies & liner operators (buyers of TEU space) to post their repositioning requirements to be reversed auctioned to service providers (these include liner operators who are welcome to register and shipbrokering.com's vast database of registered tramp vessels with TEU capacity) .

Two methods of posting allows the Buyers to either post to the "reverse auction method" or post to the "exchange method" which unlike the reverse auction displays the "Taking Price" the buyer is willing to pay for each slot.

The service providers can accept this "Taking Price" and contract immediately online or they can offer a higher price which then becomes at the discretion of the buyer to accept it or not.

Being linked to shipbrokering.com's database of ships that are open, allows the system to send out automatic invitations to tramp vessels that are in the intended loading area during the requested time period for loading of the auctions posted.

This opens up a new source of capacity for leasing companies and liner operators. Tramp vessels can take advantage of the unused container space if they are so fitted to reposition empties or even full containers adding extra revenue to a tramp operator's voyage.

According press release from Shipbrokering.com, main Leasing companies have expressed interest in Slotcharter.com , the new online marketplace for repositioning containers.
