High-Trend International Group is an exempted company incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands on February 28, 2022, as a holding company for the Caravelle Group and Pacifico Acquisition Corp. Following the business combination completed on December 16, 2022, Caravelle Group became a wholly owned subsidiary and the company’s ongoing operations are conducted through its majority-owned subsidiaries Topsheen Shipping Singapore Pte. Ltd. and Topsheen Bulk Singapore Pte. Ltd. The firm is engaged in international shipping, providing global maritime transport and logistics services by chartering vessels and arranging the carriage of bulk cargo such as iron ore, manganese ore and grain across routes that cover Africa, Asia and the Americas. Its ordinary shares are listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the ticker HCACO after the name change to High-Trend International Group in January 2025.

High-Trend International Group generates revenue primarily from voyage contracts under which it transports cargo between specific ports for an agreed-upon charge per ton of cargo, and to a lesser extent from vessel services performed as an agent for ship owners, including lease arrangements and commercial management. In the fiscal year ended October 31, 2025, shipping services generated $214,415,912, representing a 98.2 percent increase from $108,176,683 in the prior year. The company also explored offering onboard carbon capture consulting services in 2025 to provide advisory support for full-vessel carbon capture or energy-saving retrofitting projects but decided not to pursue that opportunity aggressively due to technological immaturity and market uncertainty. Substantially all of its revenue to date is derived from these core shipping activities.

The company operates through the following segments:

High-Trend International Group maintains a competitive position in the international shipping industry through its established presence in key Asian markets, especially Singapore, which serves as a major hub for global maritime trade. The company benefits from an experienced management team, many of whom have over twenty years of shipping expertise, and from long-term cargo contracts with major counterparties that help match supply with demand efficiently. These strengths allow it to navigate a sector characterized by concentration among large global carriers and vigorous regional competition, while its extensive route network spanning more than fifty countries and one hundred ports provides flexibility to serve diverse customer needs.

The company's customer base is primarily located in Asia, with significant exposure to customers in Singapore, Dubai, Korea, Japan and India. In the fiscal year ended October 31, 2025, approximately seventy-nine percent of revenue came from customers outside of China, and one customer accounted for about fifteen percent of total revenue. No single customer exceeded ten percent of revenue in the prior fiscal year. The firm does not disclose specific customer names in its filing, but it notes that its customers include importers and exporters, manufacturing enterprises, bulk commodity traders and overseas infrastructure project contractors. The concentration of accounts receivable shows that, as of October 31, 2025, two customers represented approximately sixteen percent and twelve percent of total receivables.
