The people behind the company

Two founders building a credible international export brand.

Philip Gouw and Karsten Bosch are the owners of Arbitrage Exports and the owners guiding the company’s development. Their shared goal has always been clear: build an export company that presents itself with clarity, confidence and a strong international standard. They have focused on creating a business that looks serious, acts decisively and delivers with the confidence of an established international player.

From the beginning, they understood that success in export is built on more than moving cargo. It requires trust, speed, communication, presentation and an ability to make international partners feel secure from the very first conversation. Philip and Karsten have made those principles central to the identity of Arbitrage Exports. That is why the company comes across as polished, credible and highly professional in every market it enters.

Under their ownership, Arbitrage Exports has been positioned as a premium trade partner for clients that value momentum and certainty. The company’s reputation is shaped by strong commercial instincts, disciplined operations and a leadership style that combines ambition with control.
