Intercargo is the short name for the International Association of Dry Cargo Shipowners.
Our members operate predominantly Bulk Carriers in the international dry bulk trades, such as coal, grain, iron ore and other bulk commodities. Our main role is to work with our members, the regulators and other Shipping Associations to ensure that shipping operates safely, efficiently, environmentally and profitably. To do this, we actively participate in the development of global legislation through the International Maritime Organization and other similar bodies.

Intercargo Members have directed that Intercargo's strategic efforts should be concentrated on certain priority issues – as highlighted by the Industry Issues listed on the left.
As time permits, Correspondence Groups are formed of Intercargo member volunteers to ensure that the issues under discussion receive the widest possible input from Dry Bulk shipping interests. Their views are then fed into the Executive Committee or CASTEC (Technical) Committees, and then as required, into Industry discussions at the Round Table or within IMO. |
