Convelio

Convelio is a technology-driven fine art shipping company founded in 2017 by Edouard Gouin and Clément Ouizille. Headquartered in Paris, France, with additional offices in London and New York, the company aims to revolutionize the logistics of the art world. Convelio addresses the inefficiencies prevalent in traditional art shipping, such as lengthy quoting processes, lack of transparency, and high costs. By leveraging proprietary algorithmic technology, Convelio provides instant, competitive shipping quotes for high-value, bulky, and fragile items, including paintings, sculptures, and design pieces. This digital-first approach streamlines the entire shipping process, from online booking and real-time tracking to customs clearance, insurance, and various delivery options, including white-glove service.

The company serves a diverse clientele, including art galleries, auction houses like Christie's and Sotheby's, interior designers, online art platforms, and private collectors across more than 80 countries. Convelio's mission is to build the logistics backbone of the art industry, making the transportation of valuable goods as seamless and efficient as in other e-commerce sectors. This focus on technology and customer experience has enabled Convelio to significantly grow its operations, client base, and revenue. The company emphasizes quality and security in handling delicate and high-value artworks, working with a vetted network of specialized local partners. Convelio is also committed to sustainability, actively working to reduce its environmental impact through its Climate Care program and partnerships with organizations like the Gallery Climate Coalition and ClimateAct. The company's innovative approach has attracted significant investment, allowing for continued technological development and global expansion.
