Vantage Corp (the “Company”) is an exempted company incorporated on April 2, 2024, under the laws of the Cayman Islands. Through its subsidiaries, the Company earns broking commissions based on the value of freight, freight hire, or assets. For broking services, commissions are earned either as a percentage of the underlying contract value or as a fixed fee per contract.
The Company’s brokers act as intermediaries between shipping principals, facilitating transactions across global maritime markets. The Company connects charterers with cargo interests and vessel owners with available capacity, enabling the negotiation of voyage charter, time charter, and contract of affreightment terms, including freight and hire rates. The Company operates across major global shipping markets and maritime hubs.
