Company Overview

Shaw Maritime supports companies developing business in the United States through commercial representation, conference representation, and special project coordination.

Based in Texas, our team combines maritime operational and commercial experience with account coordination, research, and communications. We take time to understand each client’s business, identify the people relevant to the assignment, and maintain clear communication as the work progresses.

Led by J.R. Shaw

J.R.’s background spans port operations, cargo handling, harbor towing sales, and maritime business development. At Suderman & Young Towing Company, he managed commercial relationships across five major Texas ports, negotiated harbor towing service agreements, and represented the company at industry conferences and customer meetings.

Earlier roles with Schröder Marine Services and Ports America involved vessel and terminal operations, including project cargo, breakbulk, heavy lift, containers, and Ro/Ro.

We bring people, information, and logistics together so meetings are well prepared, visits run smoothly, and the work continues afterward.

How we work

Each engagement has an agreed scope, a designated point of contact, and a reporting schedule. We communicate progress, identify issues early, and maintain a clear record of responsibilities and next steps.

We handle commercial discussions with discretion and agree on information-sharing arrangements appropriate to the assignment.
