Genco operates a modern wholly owned fleet of over 42 drybulk carriers—including 16 Capesize, 15 Ultramax, and eleven Supramax vessels—with an aggregate carrying capacity of approximately 4,446,000 deadweight tons (dwt). The company maintains dual operating segments focused on Major Bulk (Capesize) and Minor Bulk (Ultramax/Supramax) vessels to serve diverse cargo requirements.
