1990
Established
Providing quality shipping and logistics services at the Port of Tripoli since 1990 — vessel agency, cargo handling, and onward delivery, handled end to end.
For more than three decades, vessels calling at the Port of Tripoli have been met by a name that captains and cargo owners trust — Bitar.
A family-run agency working the quaysides of Tripoli since 1990, we combine the local knowledge that only comes from generations on the dock with the discipline of a modern logistics operation.
From the moment a ship is fixed to the final delivery inland, our team handles every formality, every lift, and every load — so your cargo keeps moving.
Everything a vessel and its cargo need at the Port of Tripoli, delivered by one accountable team.
Berth booking, port formalities, immigration, supplies and crew matters — your vessel represented from arrival to departure.
Skilled gangs and the right gear for general, bulk, breakbulk and project cargo — loaded and discharged with care.
Documentation, declarations and inspections handled by people who know Lebanese customs — cleared without the delays.
Covered and open storage beside the quay for transit and bonded cargo, with handling in and out by our own teams.
Sea and inland forwarding coordinated end to end, with one team owning the schedule, the paperwork and the updates.
A trusted fleet of trucks moving cargo from the quayside to its final destination across Lebanon and beyond.
Bitar Shipping Company began in 1990 as a small agency on the docks of Tripoli. Since then we have grown alongside the port itself — but the way we work hasn't changed: be there when the ship arrives, and stay until the job is done.
A family name that owners and charterers return to.
Vessels don't keep office hours — neither do we.
Agency, handling, clearance and transport under one roof.
When we accept a vessel, we are there for it — every formality covered, every deadline met.
Since 1990, through every kind of cargo and condition the Port of Tripoli has seen.
Excellence isn't a slogan — it's the standard we hold on every lift and every load.
Rooted in Tripoli, with the relationships and know-how that only the home port provides.
Real operations — bulk carriers worked, cargo discharged, warehoused and rolling inland.
The Port of Tripoli is Lebanon's second-largest seaport and the natural gateway to the north of the country and the trade routes beyond it. It has been our home and our workplace since day one.
