Logo: Import/Trading Company

We are a company that specialize in finding new purchasing channels for companies looking to source/import/buy wholesale products in Asia and India. We provide a service and also wholesale to suppliers.

A global concept would be a good start.

This logo is the first step and could lead to other work such as print, website design, etc.

Rowbox Inc.

We are looking for a logo that is fresh, contemporary and unique.  A simple (well thought out) logo that stands out but hard to copy.

Since we are an sourcing company and our products always travel by boat (HUGE) on a shipping container (HUGE).  Our initial thoughts to our company name "RowBox" was an image of a simple canoe/row boat carrying one wooden box.  As a joke but I am not 100% sold as I rather have a mature/professional logo.

However I am open to any type of logo.  A logo you feel would balance the company name.

Young, dynamic, proud!

EDIT UPDATE:  This logo will be first used on a business card.  Please have "Rowbox Inc." not "Rowbox" thanks.

Also it does not require a BOX shapped logo.  I am looking for something different as well.

Some of my listed "wants" are the same from other contests.  Really good points so I am re-using them.

- Recognizable simple lines logo/symbol that will stand out from others (like GE, Merrill Lynch, Blackberry, Starbucks, Intel)
- 2 Dimensional Logo (shading OK making it 3D)
- If you have an idea go with it..
- think outside the box. funky, retro-inspired, fun-yet clean, fresh, and modern
- fonts and artwork must be free of any copyright issues, please do your research
- Color is ok not too much (3-5 ok!)
- Prefer to be on white back round.Formats

-Must have: EPS @ 300 dpi, GIF, JPG, TIFF and PNG

-Scalable vector format

-1)PMS positive 2) PMS negative 3) B/W positive and 4) B/W negative

-PDF for stationery

-Others needed for thepurposes staded above?

What might help?

Questions.. don't be afraid to ask me!!

- Not typical design that is obvious.
- No clip arts
- No stock image
- No generic fonts
- No copied work. Will instantly disqualify the "designer"
- No small/cheap quickly produced logo.  It should be well thought out, modern and creative
- Cartoonish
- Photos
