(Posted on 14/10/25)

AXSMarine, a pioneer in maritime technology, celebrates its 25th anniversary this year, marking a quarter-century of delivering cutting-edge shipping IT solutions to clients across the globe. As the sole survivor of the dot-com boom in the maritime software industry, AXSMarine has grown from a small startup into a trusted partner serving clients in over 100 countries.

Over the past 25 years, AXSMarine has expanded its offerings across multiple shipping verticals, including Dry Bulk, Tanker, Gas, Container Ships, and RoRo. The company has consistently led the way in innovation, being the first to introduce an email parsing solution that converts free text into actionable shipping data, and pioneering chartering solutions integrating AIS-derived data. These technological milestones have set industry standards and enabled clients to make faster, data-driven decisions.

Jacques Goudchaux, CEO of AXSMarine, reflects on the company’s longevity: "Our mission has always been to combine data and technology to create seamless workflows for the shipping industry. Over 25 years, this approach has guided every decision we’ve made. Looking forward, we remain committed to innovation while supporting our teams and clients in achieving excellence."

Olivier Vigneron, COO, highlights the company’s culture and growth: "From just three people to a team of more than 200, the journey has been extraordinary. What hasn’t changed is our dedication to trust, fairness, and giving meaning to everything we ask of one another. Our people are at the heart of what we do, and their commitment continues to drive our success."

Stephen Fletcher, CCO, emphasizes the importance of clients: "Our clients’ trust and partnership have been the foundation of our growth. Every expansion, from Singapore to London, Sofia, the US, Hamburg, Greece, and Dubai, has been guided by the goal of being where we can best support and grow their businesses. Their satisfaction is our most powerful endorsement."

AXSMarine also takes pride in its collaborative and supportive team environment. The company’s personnel are valued not just for their expertise but for their contribution to a culture of innovation and shared success. By fostering this environment, AXSMarine ensures that its workforce remains motivated, engaged, and empowered to deliver exceptional service worldwide.

Looking ahead, AXSMarine continues to push the boundaries of shipping IT, committed to operational excellence, expanding capabilities, and providing clients with the tools they need to navigate a complex and rapidly evolving industry.
