Cosmos Agencia Marítima SAC

What Cosmos Agencia Marítima SAC does

Cosmos Agencia Marítima SAC is a Peruvian maritime, fluvial, and port services company founded in 1972 and headquartered in Callao. It operates as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Grupo Andino, a diversified conglomerate listed on the Lima Stock Exchange that also operates in airport logistics. Cosmos provides an integrated portfolio of 13+ service lines spanning ship agency, stevedoring and cargo handling, customs brokerage, freight forwarding, bonded temporary storage, national transportation with a GPS-tracked platform and van fleet, flexitank transport (as the exclusive Peruvian representative of Qingdao LAF Technology), pilotage, mooring/unmooring, terminal operations and maintenance, underwater operations, and integrated end-to-end logistics for import/export customers. The company serves enterprise clients in the energy, mining, and import/export sectors, with named customers including PetroPerú, Shell, Savia, and Lifting.

The company operates a fleet of 20+ vessels along the Peruvian coast, runs bonded warehousing in Ventanilla and Punta Hermosa with temperature-controlled and BPA-compliant capabilities, and maintains physical branch offices at 11 ports from Tumbes to Ilo plus operational camps at Malvinas and Iquitos for remote-area and river services. Its technology stack includes GPS fleet tracking, an Online Services Portal, Depot360 (with empty container, temporary storage, and customs depot modules), CustomsHub tracking (via Sumax), Port Situation monitoring, and TrackOne360 cargo tracking — all of which digitize customer operations but do not constitute AI-driven systems. Cosmos holds OEA (Operador Económico Autorizado) certification from SUNAT, Peru's tax and customs authority, providing a regulatory advantage in customs brokerage.

Cosmos employs more than 100 professionals and reaches the market through direct B2B enterprise sales, relationship-based account management across industries, and self-serve customer portals. Revenue streams are diversified across professional service fees (ship agency, stevedoring, customs, storage, pilotage, terminal operations), transaction fees (freight forwarding, national transport), and licensing/royalties (flexitank representation). Pricing is not publicly disclosed; a Depósito Temporal tariff schedule is available for download as an Excel file. The company operates 365 days per year. Limited direct financial information is publicly available, and no funding rounds, acquisitions, or leadership changes were identified in the data set.

Direct peers

• Trabajos Marítimos S.A. (TRAMARSA): Peruvian maritime and port services company providing ship agency, stevedoring, and cargo handling at Callao and other Peruvian ports. Directly competes with Cosmos across the same core ship agency and stevedoring service lines for the same enterprise shipper base.
• Agunsa (Grupo Empresas Navieras): Chilean port operator and maritime services group providing ship agency, stevedoring, freight forwarding, customs brokerage, and warehousing across Latin America. Closest comparable in business model and integrated service portfolio to Cosmos.
• Neptunia S.A. Peruvian port terminal operator and logistics provider operating at Callao with stevedoring, container handling, and storage services. Direct competitor for terminal operations and cargo handling work in the same Peruvian ports Cosmos serves.
• Ransa Comercial S.A. Peruvian logistics and warehousing operator providing freight forwarding, customs brokerage, storage, and national transportation. Directly competes with Cosmos across land-based logistics services for the same enterprise import/export customers.
• Ultramar (Ultramar Agencia Marítima): Chilean maritime agency, freight forwarding, and integrated logistics provider with broad Latin American coverage. Closely mirrors Cosmos' full-service maritime agency plus logistics model and competes for Chilean-Peruvian cross-border trade.
• Consolidated Logistics (Ransa/Grupo Ransa): Latin American logistics platform offering contract logistics, freight forwarding, customs, and transportation across multiple countries including Peru. Comparable in scale and integrated service mix to Cosmos' domestic logistics arm.

Broad incumbents

• Inchcape Shipping Services: Global ship agency and maritime services provider with a worldwide network covering vessel agency, husbandry, and port call services. Competes with Cosmos for international shipping line vessel agency business calling Peruvian ports.
• Wilhelmsen Ship Management (Wilhelmsen Port Services): Global maritime services group offering ship agency, port services, and vessel support through a worldwide network. Comparable to Cosmos in the ship agency and vessel call service layer, particularly for international shipping line clients.
• DP World Callao: Global port operator and concessionaire operating the Callao container terminal in Peru. While primarily a terminal operator rather than ship agent, DP World's presence at the country's largest port creates both direct stevedoring competition and a captive customer relationship that affects Cosmos' service volumes.

Emerging players

• Serviagro (Grupo Romero): Peruvian operator with port and maritime services exposure as part of the Romero group. Competes in adjacent segments of Peru's port services market and shares some of the same enterprise customer base in commodity trade.
