Prefix
GESU
Owner or operator
Seaco SRL

The four-letter prefix GESU appears at the start of ISO container identification numbers and is associated with Seaco SRL.

A complete container number combines the owner prefix, six-digit serial number, and check digit. The prefix identifies registered equipment ownership and does not always identify the carrier currently transporting the container.

Use the CargoEnter container validator to check the number structure before starting shipment tracking.

A container number starting with GESU has the four-letter prefix, a six-digit serial number, and one check digit, for example GESU1234567.

Who uses GESU containers

GESU is registered to Seaco SRL. Leased or exchanged equipment can move with a different shipping line, so the prefix alone does not identify the carrier of a shipment.
