What We Do
Core Shipping is a reputable maritime transportation company based in Istanbul, operating since 2015. We specialize in providing tailored freight solutions for bulk, oversized, and heavy lift cargoes through sea, river, and road. With over 15 years of industry experience, our expertise spans breakbulk, containerized, oversized, and heavy lift shipments.

As a true "maritime" company, our core business focuses on chartering in niche markets, with a strong emphasis on the West Africa region, where we’ve established a semi-liner service driven by market demand. Our solid network of global solution partners and regional representatives ensures seamless multimodal services tailored to our clients' needs.

In celebration of our 10th anniversary, we are seeking a refreshed, more sophisticated logo that represents our journey and maritime heritage. We would like the logo to feature our company name, CORE SHIPPING, written in all capital letters, side by side. New logo MUST HAVE an emblem / badge. The emblem could have our initials or some design element related to our sector.
Our current colors include burgundy and dark gray, but we are open to exploring a darker navy blue or black palette for a modern and professional look. While there is no specific story behind our name, we aim for a design that resonates with the maritime industry’s aesthetics, where red, blue, and gray are commonly used.

We welcome creative ideas that reflect our identity as a well-established and forward-thinking maritime company, aiming for a design that aligns with industry standards while making a bold statement.

Our Ideas & Additional Information
As Core Shipping, we do not have a specific story or a particular element that must be incorporated into our logo. However, we have outlined a few priorities and directions for your consideration:

Word Placement:

The words CORE and SHIPPING must be placed side by side.
Both words should be written in uppercase letters to emphasize the brand name clearly and consistently.

Inclusion of an Emblem: (most important one)

We prefer the logo to include an emblem that can also be used independently when needed.
While we do not have a strict requirement for the emblem, you are welcome to explore elements relevant to the maritime industry (e.g., a ship bow or a sailor's knot).
Alternatively, the emblem can focus on the initials (C and S) or draw inspiration from the word "core" to reflect its meaning (e.g., essence, foundation, or centrality).

Flexibility in Design:

There is no specific symbol or story tied to our brand name, so we are open to creative interpretations.
While traditional maritime symbols like anchors may feel overused, a fresh approach to maritime or abstract concepts is welcome.
We aim for a modern, professional, and timeless design that reflects our decade of experience in the maritime industry. Your expertise and creativity will help bring our brand identity to life.
