GrainEx is a full-service freight forwarder operating the Black Sea corridor.

The business runs in two arms — marine agency and logistics. Logistics coordinates origin-to-destination shipments: rented rail and road from Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, China and the wider CIS, vessel handling at Poti and Batumi, customs, and final delivery into Europe and the Americas. Agency handles vessel berthing, port-call documentation and port-authority liaison. Same group, same file.

Marine agency

Vessel berthing coordination at Poti and Batumi, port-call legal documentation, permitting and port-authority liaison. ISPS-compliant throughout. The agency arm runs in parallel with logistics so the same file follows the cargo.

Customs & import / export

Brokerage, phyto and quality certification, transit documentation across GE, AZ, AM, UZ, KZ, TR, CN, the EU and the US. Filed, paid, cleared — usually before the vessel finishes berthing.

Bulk & cargo storage

Two facilities in operation — a 7,000 t soya-meal store and a newly commissioned 20,000 t bulk facility, with open-yard and bonded warehousing for containers and break-bulk. Coal handled in segregated bays to avoid cross-contamination with food-grade cargoes.
