In compliance with the latest notification from Cabo Verde's Finance Ministry, the Atlantic Shipping would like to notify its valuable customers that they would have to pay in Cabo Verde, a tax on the amount paid to the local agency to pick up the cargo.
If you want to transport cargo to Cabo Verde in time for the holiday season and new year's festivities, you must have the cargo delivered by October 24 at the latest. The Agena ship is scheduled to depart on November 8.
The Agena ship departed Saturday, September 11, as previously announced, and in an unusual move, carrying tangible relief to the victims of Haiti's recent earthquake.

Atlantic Shipping reminds all of its clients that on Thursday, May 7th, it will reopen its facilities and begin receiving goods again. It will open during normal business hours, which are between 10:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. each day from Thursday to Monday (we are closed on Tuesdays and Wednesdays).
Each barrel shipped to our warehouses between May 7th and May 18th will receive a $10 (dollars) discount as part of a limited-time promotion. Drums containing food for family members in Cape Verde are eligible for the discount.
Since April 18, Atlantic Shipping has been unable to function due of the Covid-19 pandemic. The warehouses in Fall River, Brockton, and Braintree were all closed.
