Husbandry Agent Services in Bangladesh – Argo Ship

A vessel may require much more than simple ship agency services when in port. The need often arises for husbandry services, which can sometimes mean the involvement of a different agent to that which is handling the port call. ArgoSSL can avoid that by providing professional husbandry services at ports and terminals.

What is a Husbandry Agent?

A husbandry agent is a local representative of a shipowner or operator responsible for managing a vessel’s needs while in port. These services are crucial to ensure that a ship is operationally ready and compliant with all local regulations. Husbandry agents act as the bridge between the ship, port authorities, suppliers, and service providers, ensuring smooth port calls and minimizing delays.
