QC Maritime Ltd., QC Logistics Ltd. and Eastern Maritime Limited are offshoots of our parent company QC Shipping Ltd. which came into being in 1975 as a shipping agent. Over the years QC Shipping Ltd. thrived in the shipping industry of Bangladesh and emerged as a major shipping house. It rose to prominence as a ship owning company ruling the waves of Bay of Bengal for a good 14 years. The company owned eight container ships with capacity of 1000 TEUS each and operated between Far East and the Sub-continent and expanded service to the Persian Gulf. However, from 2005 feeder trade between Chittagong- Singapore and Chittagong- Colombo did not run profitably as the major main line operators in Bangladesh started using their own feeders rather than using common carriers. With a view to diversifying our business coping the need of time, separate entities brought forth.
QC Logistics Limited is a agency house representing several shipping lines and a freight forwarder.
QC Maritime Limited is a NVOCC operator having inventory of 5 thousand containers of different sizes and 2 (Two) Hundred special equipments ( Flat Rack, OT, etc.). Currently it is covering Intarsia trade.
Eastern Maritime Limited is dedicated to liner representation, freight forwarding and air shipment.
Our objective is to provide reliable and quality service, which is strongly supported by professionalism. Our well-trained staffs are equipped with knowledge and vast experiences in handing MLOs, NVOCC operators, custom brokers and freight consolidation. In short span of time, we have achieved remarkable success in air and sea freight operations mainly due to dedication in customer service.
Although our growth has been substantial, we take pride of our ability to maintain personalised service to our customers with highly competitive pricing. We devote ourselves to complete customer satisfaction in every aspect.

Looking Ahead Towards A New Frontier
It was a fresh start- new beginning. Our company QC Maritime Limited came into being in 2005. Within a short period of time the company made a phenomenal stride in the shipping business covering Fareast and Europe. I can say with pride that this company has been a major player of carrying special cargo to different parts of the globe.
Shipping has proven to be as challenging as ever. The globalisation process and subsequent growth in international trade have changed the modality of transport and logistics. We are expanding through diversification of our businesses: Logistics business that provides inland transport, cabotage, international multimodal transport, warehousing, and other services; shipping business that conducts both domestic and international transportation, specialising in project cargo, and more.
Our slogan "Looking ahead towards new frontier" embodies the progressive convention of QC Maritime's direction. As old or new business customers, we welcome you on this journey of mutual success and profitability.
