“Moving a full cargo hold brings purpose back to sailing. It’s beautiful, and you’re accomplishing something amazing.”
We are a freshly emerging freight company, here to make a name in the sustainable transportation market.

Our board of 5 voting individuals is led by the Managing Director. With 3,150 shares certificates available for purchase, we look forward to having you on our team.

Our focus isn't only environmental; but also on developing an innovative, assertive business model. Our strategic choice of Costa Rica as a home port comes not only because of its aim of 100% country-wide carbon neutrality by 2021, but also because it is a business-friendly nation ideally located along North + South American routes, and access to Caribbean Sea and Pacific Ocean. Our high-torque electric engine (powered by solar battery) will only need 120 horsepower, an efficient cost-savings.
SAILCARGO INC. aims to make a positive mark in the world of transportation by being an effective, sustainable option. Through transporting freight with a carbon-neutral system, we offer a new way to look at the economics of shipping as fuel becomes increasingly scarce and expensive.
Our first ship, Ceiba, will offer something unique to both exporters and importers: the opportunity to finally close the loop for their most important organic, sustainable products. Transporting products which are promoted as 'green' via container ships feels hollow.
