OBT Group

OBT Group Shipping and Logistics Operations Across Africa. Our journey began in 2004 with the opening of the first two OBT offices in Sierra Leone and Liberia.

Since then, we have embarked on an extraordinary journey of growth, with established offices in West and Central Africa and ongoing expansion into East Africa. OBT is managed by Danish shipping professionals with long-term experience in West and Central Africa. We are proud of our Danish roots, which bring a long-standing tradition of maritime and logistics heritage, along with a strong link to a

global network of leading ship owners and operators, and local logistics experts. By continuously striving to expand our service portfolio, we remain committed to providing the highest level of customer service. Our teams approach every challenge with flexibility and a drive to deliver on time. With over two decades of experience, we have obtained invaluable knowledge, refined our operational skills to a high level, and built dedicated teams capable of navigating the dynamic and sometimes turbulent environments we operate in. We turn expertise into solutions across Africa, shaping the future of the continent’s shipping and logistics.

Not every role in maritime happens onboard ⚓
Many take place in ports, warehouses, operations rooms, customs processes, vessel coordination, and transport planning — in the thousands of decisions that keep cargo moving every day.
Behind every successful shipment is a network of people making sure nothing stops.
This International Day for Women in Maritime, we celebrate the incredible women across our group — and across the entire industry — who keep this movement alive with skill, resilience, and leadership.

Specialised cargo needs specialised planning. ✈️
For a mining project in Guinea, West Africa, we handled the air shipment of out-of-gauge, time-critical production equipment from the UK to Conakry. Our team arranged a dedicated charter flight, collected the cargo from the supplier in the UK, and selected a specialized departure airport equipped for this type of operation. Over the past six months, this project has included the ex*****on of multiple successful flights.
Complex cargo. Precise ex*****on.

3 locations. 2 generators. 1 job done right. ✅
We completed a full generator‑handling mission across Mali — lifting, loading, transporting, and positioning two units from Nioro du Sahel to Diago and Bamako. With a 100‑ton crane, flatbeds, and a dedicated crew, every phase ran smoothly and safely, from first lift to final placement.

Here’s how freight forwarding keeps the global supply chain moving… 🚛
Freight forwarding is more than just moving goods. It’s about coordinating complex operations across land, sea, and air to make sure products arrive safely and on time.
By managing transport, customs, documentation, and routing, freight forwarders keep trade flowing, connect markets, and ensure timely delivery — even across continents.
Whether it is ocean shipments, urgent air cargo, or smart intermodal solutions combining land, sea, and air, freight forwarding is a vital link in global commerce.

Setting new standards in cross‑border ex*****on.
Over the past year, our DRC team has supported the end‑to‑end coordination of transporting a highly specialized, custom‑crafted installation from its origin in Europe to its final destination in Lubumbashi. From manufacturing supervision, port handling, and long‑haul routing, to overseeing the final site delivery, our teams worked across borders to ensure a smooth and safe journey for this unique cargo.
