Maritime Africa is actively progressing funding with soft commitments of US$23 million. We are seeking a second investor to provide US$1 million for insurance and start-up costs associated with a Nigerian oil and gas shipping company, alongside additional funders for later transactions and growth opportunities.
Maritime Africa is not simply a shipping company or a consultancy. It is a strategic platform that connects Governments → Projects → Operators → Investors → Capital, with the governance and commercial coordination required to turn maritime opportunities into investable projects.
