Vessel Description

CATTLE FORCE is an international live stock carrier built in 1999 at the Brodogradiliste Split shipyard in Croatia. The vessel is purpose-built for the transportation of live animals, a specialized segment of maritime cargo requiring dedicated ventilation, feeding, watering, and animal welfare infrastructure across multiple deck levels. Operating under the Togolese flag, the vessel is configured with open-sided decks to facilitate airflow essential for the health of live animal cargo during extended ocean voyages. Live stock carriers of this class typically serve export markets involving cattle, sheep, and other livestock between producing nations and importing regions, particularly across the Indian Ocean and Middle East trade lanes.
