MISSION
ABOUT US
OVER SEAT TRADE (OVST) is a new company with a long history.
It all starts with a market leader whose products are in demand worldwide – but these products are made of metal, and are therefore as heavy as they are unwieldy.
There is no satisfactory solution available for loading them into containers.
So the company takes it upon itself to develop a solution: Simple, fast, secure. At the push of a button.
This gives rise to additional in-house logistics products. And the result is an extensive range – and ultimately us. Good ideas can finally be actively marketed and made available for use, ideally tailored to your requirements. And always evolving.
Because we of course also have a very dynamic development department. We operate internationally as well, having already gained a foothold in the EU market. We look forward to working with you and writing new chapters of a history that’s worth living.
