SHIPPING & BOAT CHARTER

IDC Shipping Department operates the most comprehensive, dynamic and wide-ranging vessel chartering service in Seychelles. The shore office is managed by our Marine Superintendent and Engineering Manager and manned by professional and experienced personnel.

Enterprise II: lifeline of the outer islands

Enterprise II  is the main vessel providing a sea link to the outer islands, sailing on a quarterly basis and completing a circuit of the islands to deliver fuel, building materials, equipment and essential provisions. Enterprise II transports 95% of all outer island cargo to islands managed by IDC. The company also serves private clients, notably Seychelles Island Foundation, managers of Aldabra.

Enterprise II: Import and export

Enterprise II returns some of the products of the outer islands to Mahe, including copra for overseas export and agricultural products for the domestic market. Copra was the main product of the outer islands when IDC was formed, but today, the tourism industry has risen to prominence with IDC providing goods and services to the outer islands.
