This agreement will benefit Kanoo Shipping customers across all major Indian ports and Seaworld Shipping customers across all major middle east ports.
'Kanoo Shipping is continually searching for ways to provide the market edge for our customers,' said Stephen Hines, Regional Commercial Manager, Kanoo Shipping Agencies. 'The booming Indian economy and the ever increasing trade between the Middle East and the Subcontinent have created a need to combine our own significant network with one of India's best established and most respected agencies.'
Seaworld Shipping & Logistics' 'All India Network' caters for the massive growth being seen in multimodal and intermodal transportation and covers all major ports and inland container depots.
'The Seaworld name is well known in the Indian shipping and logistics Industry,' said CS Manohar, President of Seaworld Shipping and Logistics. 'We felt it would be of advantage to our Principals and to us to expand overseas in the strategically important Middle East market through an alliance with an equally well reputed and long standing company like Kanoo.'
Both companies agree that combining the experience, assets and brand value of the leading operators of each region will deliver a combined coverage which will be unparalleled.
'This agreement means that Kanoo Shipping will now have an immediate, high profile and dependable coverage of the Indian market,' added Hines. 'The increased range of agency services for owners and charterers and the speed and simplicity of service delivery will bring cost benefits to all.'
'The Middle East and India markets have been linked through trade contacts for centuries', agreed Manohar. 'This Alliance allows the two companies to regard the two markets as a single region and jointly address the opportunities within it.'
