Celebrations in Houston: Chipolbrok America’s 20th Anniversary
Breakbulk Americas served as the perfect venue to celebrate the 20th anniversary of Chipolbrok America. The journey began in October 2004, when the co-owners of Chipolbrok—responding to increasing sailings from China and the Far East to the USA—decided to establish a representative office in Houston. Since then, the company has grown steadily, becoming a key player in the Americas.
Initially starting with a small team, the Chinese-Polish Joint Stock Shipping Company, widely known as Chipolbrok, has expanded its Houston office to employ ten staff members today. This growth reflects the increasing frequency of Chipolbrok vessel calls at US ports in the Gulf of Mexico and along the east coast, as well as the addition of destinations in Central and South America and the Canadian west coast.
Global Reach and Services
Chipolbrok provides comprehensive shipping services, connecting major markets in Asia, the Americas, Europe, Australia, and Africa. The company operates liner services and voyage charters worldwide, catering to diverse cargo needs.
