Galbraiths is a London-based shipbroking firm with roots dating to 1847, traditionally focused on tanker brokerage and global sale-and-purchase activity. It serves shipowners, operators, and other market participants in maritime transport, providing brokerage services across the tanker sector and related markets. The organization operates with a multinational footprint and a sizable professional team, reflecting its long-standing presence in the field. In 2023, Galbraiths merged with IFCHOR, a Lausanne-founded shipbroker established in 1977, to form IFCHOR GALBRAITHS. The combined entity extends beyond brokerage to incorporate IFCHORβs research, advisory services, and expertise in dry bulk, tankers, and S&P markets, backed by a network spanning more than twenty offices and hundreds of professionals. Recent news notes that the IFCHOR Galbraiths group expanded its footprint through the acquisition of Aries Shipping, a Brazilian dry bulk shipbroker.
