Towt, or TransOceanic Wind Transport, is a French company dedicated to the revival of sail-powered maritime transport as a sustainable alternative to conventional shipping. Founded in 2011, Towt operates a fleet of traditional sailing vessels that transport goods such as coffee, chocolate, and wine across the Atlantic and beyond, without relying on fossil fuels. This method of transport drastically reduces the carbon footprint associated with shipping, aligning with the growing demand for environmentally responsible trade practices. Towt's work is a nod to the past while offering a forward-thinking solution to one of the most pressing environmental challenges of our time—reducing greenhouse gas emissions from global trade.
