London, 28/04/2025 – Freight Investor Services (FIS), the leading freight and commodity brokerage, is delighted to announce the opening of a new office in Geneva. This strategic move reinforces FIS’s commitment to expanding its global footprint in key shipping and trading markets.
The Geneva office will serve as a headquarter for FIS Dry SARL, a company dedicated to expand FIS’s offering in physical shipbroking. To lead this initiative, Chiara Di Chio has joined the company as Head of Physical Dry Cargo, Geneva Office.
George Dranganoudis, CEO of FIS, commented:
“Opening a new office in Geneva reflects our view of the city as a key global hub for freight and commodities. This marks another step forward in our long-term strategy to grow in new regions and strengthen our service offerings in physical shipping.”
John Banaszkiewicz, Chairman and Founder of FIS, said:
“Chiara brings a wealth of experience and industry knowledge in the physical shipbroking space, making her a valuable addition to the FIS physical team and will be instrumental in expanding our reach across the region. Geneva is also close to my heart, as I spent six years living and working there.”
This milestone follows the successful acquisition of GR8 Chartering in Athens in June 2024 and the opening of the Manhattan office in November. Together, they reflect FIS’s ongoing investment in global expansion and its dedication to serving an increasingly diverse international client base.
The Geneva office is located in Rue Ferdinand Hodler 23, 1207, Geneva, Switzerland.
