The Chinese Market Welcomes Skaarup Presence

June 1, 2004

From April 25 to May 5, Thomas Bene, President of Skaarup Shipping, along with Harry Xia, Vice President of Skaarup, visited China and met with major Chinese shipping executives in Shanghai, Dalian and Hong Kong.

All these meetings were held in a constructive and exhilarating atmosphere. The Chinese counterparts highly value Skaarup’s brand and expertise and are keen to work with Skaarup in the arena of bulk and self-unloading shipping. This trip helped strengthen ties with Chinese clients, substantiate the joint venture with Chinese partners, and identify many potential projects.

Thomas Bene also visited Mistui OSK  in Tokyo, Japan, a major top-tier Japanese shipowner and  a longtime partner of Skaarup.
