Welcome to Check Naval

CheckNaval is a professional freelance project by Javier Macías Pérez de Alarcón, Unlimited Master Mariner.

CheckNaval project

CheckNaval is based in San Fernando, Cádiz Bay. Close by important strategically located ports in South Spain, Portugal and Morocco.

CheckNaval’s independence provides flexibility, exemplified by our ability to attend global engagements at short notice, ensuring timely responses to client needs and changing market conditions. CheckNaval's key values includes Trustworthiness, job consistency and loyalty to the client, always maintaining due confidentiality.

In English, the word ‘naval’ is connected to the navy. However, in Spanish its first meaning is ‘pertaining to or relating to ships and navigation’. ‘Check’ is to make sure that something is correct, safe and suitable. Both words together symbolize what this project is all about. The logo includes the CheckNaval initials framed on a compass rose.
