At John S. James Co., we don’t just arrange shipments — we actively manage how they move.

Through our partner company, EUR-A-MED SHIPPING LTD, a licensed NVOCC established in 1982, we’re able to offer our customers competitive ocean freight rates, flexible scheduling, and consistent oversight across global trade lanes.

What this means for our customers:

• Access to negotiated carrier contracts and competitive global rates
• Multiple carrier and sailing options to support production and delivery timelines
• Faster, clearer communication through a single, experienced point of contact
• Door-to-door service supported by a trusted international agent network
• Issuance of our own NVOCC Bills of Lading
• Direct filing of Import Control System 2 (ICS2) for exports to the European Union
• Long-term stability from an NVOCC with over 40 years of operating experience

In a shipping environment where disruptions are common and regulatory requirements continue to evolve, operating through our NVOCC partner allows us to deliver flexibility, compliance, consistency, and visibility—without sacrificing transparency or service.

One team. One bill of lading. One partner.
