We bring together a network of small producers, beautiful sailing ships, and passionate allies to deliver the most delicious goods from across the oceans, with the power of the wind.

  Creating a sustainable economy around sailing cargo ships is our biggest challenge. The ships we work with are not sailing to compete with Maersk. Our ships, like the olive trees, ask for our patience, loyalty, and love. They ask us to be human and not ‘consumers’. 

  By purchasing in advance the cost of both the cargo and the voyage is shared amongst many and the financial risk of a voyage is removed. By collecting from the ship, your Port Ally or Community Broker, the onward distribution and storage needs are also shared and reduced. By buying larger amounts to last you a season or to share with family and friends, we reduce packaging waste and take one more item off your weekly supermarket lists.

  In this way, we can start small as individuals or groups, whilst all together we are filling the ship’s hold and creating voyage routes where every port arrival is like a homecoming. As sail-cargo-pioneers, your support is launching a system of trade that is truly able to bring global consumption back to a human scale.

  The ship’s arrival becomes a chance to celebrate a job well done, with music, tastings and talks!
