Fleet

Breakbulk charter LoLo vessels in rolling periods with varying durations. Over time, the company has concentrated its collaboration with a selection of shipowners from whom we now lease vessels for extended periods. For SOL, the concept of “business sustainability” is a keyword in its operations. It's about being a partner that provides reliable, predictable, and long-term services. Below you find an example of our long-term fleet.
