Under construction · Launching 2027
Ship chandlery, delivered at the speed of the tide.
ZipChandler is a digital ship chandler platform that connects vessels, ship managers, and port suppliers in one place — so provisions, deck and engine stores, and critical spares are quoted, ordered, and delivered alongside before the next tide turns.

The platform
Everything a vessel needs, in one marketplace.
ZipChandler is being built to replace scattered emails, spreadsheets, and phone calls with a single, transparent place to source every category of ship supply.
Provisions & Victualling
Fresh, frozen, and dry provisions for the galley — sourced locally and delivered fresh to the gangway.
Deck & Cabin Stores
Ropes, paints, cleaning supplies, linen, and safety consumables, catalogued with IMPA codes.
Engine Stores & Spares
Filters, gaskets, tools, and OEM spare parts with full traceability for the engine room.
Safety & LSA / FFA
Life-saving and fire-fighting equipment, certified and compliant with SOLAS requirements.
Bonded & Technical Supplies
Bonded stores, chemicals, and technical items handled with the documentation each port demands.
Lubes, Water & Port Services
Lubricants, fresh water, and launch logistics coordinated for anchorage and berth deliveries.
How it will work
From requisition to gangway in three moves.
Designed for ship owners, managers, crews, and the chandlers who serve them in ports around the world.
Request
Crew or superintendents raise a requisition by port and ETA, using standard IMPA and ISSA catalogues.
Compare
Vetted chandlers at the next port of call respond with competitive quotes you can compare side by side.
Deliver
Orders are confirmed, tracked, and delivered alongside — with invoices and documents in one record.
