Becoming a certified vendor with ShipShore Group means more than just getting listed—it means being trusted.
Join a growing network of approved maritime service providers across the Philippines and Southeast Asia, recognized for reliability, quality, and service readiness.
Our maritime vendor certification process ensures that each vendor is verified for credibility, operational capability, and alignment with industry expectations—giving shipowners and managers confidence in every connection.
Here’s how the certification works:
1. Initial Application
Vendors begin by submitting a registration form through our platform. This includes:
- Business Name and Description
- Services Offered (e.g., engine repair, ship chandling, inspection services)
- Area of Operation
- Valid Business Permits (DTI, SEC, BIR, or local permits)
- Portfolio or Project Experience
2. Document Review & Background Check
Our team verifies your legal documents and assesses your credibility. We look for:
- Registered business status
- History of successful projects or clients
- Safety compliance or crew competency (if applicable)
- Responsive communication and clear pricing
3. Interview or Clarification (if needed)
For vendors in technical or high-risk categories, we may schedule a brief online meeting to clarify qualifications, tools used, or safety practices.
4. Certification Approval
Once approved, your profile will receive a Certified Vendor status, indicating that your business has passed initial screening.
You’ll be listed on the platform and become eligible for client referrals, technician pairing, and long-term engagement.
Even if you don’t pass on the first try, we provide clear feedback and support so you can update your documents or services and re-apply.
Certification isn’t just a formality—it’s your first step to credibility and growth in the maritime market.
