About Consimar
Ever since its creation, ASML GROUP has been fully aware of the importance of having an appropriate tool and effective logistics for importing operations via the ports of Nouakchott and Nouadhibou. The group therefore decided to set up a shipping agent and transit company. CONSIMAR SA has its head office in Nouakchott and a local office in Nouadhibou.
With the growth in the fisheries sector in Mauritania, CONSIMAR SA broadened its activities to acting as agent for fishing boats. CONSIMAR SA is now approved by the ministry for fisheries which has awarded it
licences authorising foreign fishing boats for which it acts as agent to fish in Mauritania’s territorial waters.
Consimar SA acts as agent for ships conveying imported goods (container carriers, bulk carriers, etc.) and ships exporting goods from Mauritania all over the globe (e.g. bulkers carrying iron ore from
Nouadhibou).
As shipping agent, CONSIMAR SA offers a tailored service adapted to the specific characteristic of each stopover. Its comprehensive and high-quality services include:
stopover preparation, documentation, customs, miscellaneous formalities, dockside victualling, relieving of sailors, dealing with patients, transfer of funds,
