BigLift Shipping B.V.
BigLift Shipping B.V. is a private limited company (besloten vennootschap) registered in the Netherlands under Chamber of Commerce (KvK) number 57163510, with its registered office in Amsterdam. Its current registry status is active. Registry data on file shows an incorporation date of 31 January 2013; the company’s own published corporate history separately states that the BigLift Shipping name has been in commercial use since 1 January 2001, when a predecessor company was renamed. This profile has not independently reconciled the 2013 registration date against the earlier 2001 renaming, and the two should be treated as separate facts rather than one superseding the other.
BigLift Shipping B.V. is active in worldwide ocean transportation of ro-ro, heavy-lift and project cargo. Its principal activities, per its own published materials, include chartering and freight-brokerage services, the leasing and operation of specialised heavy-lift and heavy-transport vessels, and the planning and execution of engineered transport solutions for oversized and heavy cargo. It serves markets including oil and gas, offshore renewables such as offshore wind, power generation, and shipyard and container-crane cargo. Its published fleet includes heavy-lift vessels and heavy-transport vessels, including its “Happy” class and other purpose-built tonnage.
BigLift Shipping was previously known as Mammoet Shipping. As a besloten vennootschap, BigLift Shipping B.V. is a private company and is not listed on any stock exchange. No company-level revenue or employee figures for this specific legal entity were located in the sources reviewed for this profile. The most recent verified commercial development identified in the sources reviewed is a 2019 announcement that BigLift Shipping and Chung Yang Shipping would jointly operate newly built heavy-transport vessels; no more recent material business development specific to this entity was verified as of the 17 September 2026 data-retrieval date.

Shareholders
Shareholders of BigLift Shipping B.V.
No shareholders of record are shown for BigLift Shipping B.V. in the registry and beneficial-ownership data reviewed for this profile, as of 17 September 2026. Companies registered in the Netherlands are not required to file a public shareholders’ register with the KvK; the shareholders’ register for a besloten vennootschap (B.V.) such as BigLift Shipping B.V. is kept privately by the company rather than published by the Chamber of Commerce. Separately, BigLift Shipping B.V. carries a beneficial-ownership (UBO) filing obligation under Dutch law, but no UBO identity or percentage was accessible in the data reviewed for this profile. The absence of a disclosed shareholder or UBO record should not be read as evidence that the company has no shareholders or beneficial owners; it reflects the more limited public-disclosure regime described below.
Data availability
Shareholder-of-record disclosure for BigLift Shipping B.V. is classified as Not public: Dutch law does not require a B.V.’s shareholder register to be filed publicly with the KvK. UBO disclosure is classified as Restricted: public access to the Dutch UBO register has been curtailed for the general public since the Court of Justice of the European Union’s November 2022 ruling in the Sovim case (Joined Cases C-37/20 and C-601/20), which required EU member states to limit general public access to beneficial-ownership registers; access in the Netherlands is now limited mainly to competent authorities and obliged entities such as banks and notaries.

Group Structure
Group structure of BigLift Shipping B.V.
Registry-linkage data on file for BigLift Shipping B.V. records one related entity, BigLift Projects B.V. (Netherlands, KvK number 66209986), shown as a subsidiary beneath BigLift Shipping B.V., in a snapshot dated 11 August 2026. No ownership percentage, voting-control percentage or supporting filing reference accompanies that record, so the precise extent of control cannot be stated beyond identifying the relationship as recorded. No other direct or indirect subsidiaries of BigLift Shipping B.V. were verified in the sources reviewed.
Separately, the official Spliethoff Group corporate website states that BigLift Shipping B.V. is “a member of the Spliethoff Group,” without identifying a specific parent legal entity name, jurisdiction, registration number or ownership percentage. No KvK filing, annual account or other primary registry source naming an immediate or ultimate parent company for BigLift Shipping B.V. was located in the sources reviewed. This affiliation is therefore presented as a possible relationship (unverified) rather than a confirmed parent-subsidiary link, pending sight of a filing that names the specific holding entity and its ownership stake.
No verified corporate relationship between BigLift Shipping B.V. and Roll Group (the Roll-Lift/RollDock group) was identified in the sources reviewed. BigLift Shipping and RollDock Shipping previously formed a joint venture named BigRoll to operate two module carriers, announced in BigLift Shipping’s own published company history with a stated vessel-delivery window of late 2014/early 2015; that history page describes this as a joint commercial venture between two separately owned companies rather than a merger or change of ownership, and it is the most recent development connecting BigLift Shipping to any RollDock/Roll Group entity found in the sources reviewed. No evidence was found that BigLift Shipping B.V. has since merged into, been acquired by, or been rebranded as Roll Group.

Data availability
Corporate-linkage disclosure for BigLift Shipping B.V. is classified as Partial: one subsidiary-level entity is identified in registry-linkage data on file, but no ownership percentages and no verified immediate or ultimate parent entity were located in the sources reviewed. The Netherlands does not require public filing of a consolidated group ownership chart, which limits independently verifiable group-structure detail beyond individual KvK company and shareholder/UBO extracts.
