contract carrier / one(-)ship company
Explanation:
Vertragsreederei = contract carrier laut Logistik-WB (Benz/Wessels)

"one ship company" wie z.B. hier:
http://www.mglobal.com/news/newsreleasedetails.cfm?id=2191&t...
(falls "Einschiffs-" wirklich als "ein Schiff" und nicht als "Einschiff*ung" zu verstehen ist)

This is the hard part about asking questions on ProZ.com: Having to choose who is getting the KudoZ.

Althoug both replies were very valuable, I decided to go with "contract carrier" and "one ship company". The reason is that I found "Einschiffs-KG" on Google, with the comment that this is a "one ship company."

Many thanks to both of you!
