Laying the Foundation
Since our founding, CST has followed a deliberate path of growth, guided by insight, disciplined strategy, and global ambition. These milestones reflect that journey.
CST began its journey in 2017, headquartered in Athens with a clear vision: to build a disciplined, modern, privately owned shipping enterprise. From the outset, the company focused on the chartering, operation, and management of dry bulk carriers—ranging from Handysize to Kamsarmax—establishing the principles that still guide our approach today.
Entering Operational Activity
After several years of building strong market insight and strategic depth, 2022 marked our transition into full operational activity. With the chartering of our first vessel, CST recorded premium returns, validating the strategic groundwork laid in the previous years and setting a performance benchmark for the future.
Expanding Operational Engagement
The momentum created in 2022 carried naturally into 2023, as CST expanded its operational footprint by chartering two additional vessels, both in and out. This period signaled not just growth in numbers, but the strengthening of our reputation for disciplined execution, reliability, and consistent performance in the dry bulk market.
Expanding Our Global Presence
Building on this solid operational base, 2024 became a year of international expansion. CST extended its activities to Brazil and Belgium, broadening its global reach and enhancing connectivity with key maritime markets. These strategic steps reflect our commitment to evolving with our clients’ needs and reinforcing CST’s position within the global shipping landscape.
