Tech-led bunkering company Shipergy on Monday (5 August) announced the commencement of its first operations in Singapore with the appointment of Mr. Dennis Ho as Managing Director.
Dennis Ho, the former Managing Director of ElbOil in Singapore, brings a wealth of experience and expertise to the team, marking a significant milestone in Shipergy’s global expansion.
“This hire completes a recruitment phase for Shipergy, during which it has welcomed several talented individuals to its global team,” the firm said in a statement.
In Dubai, Mrs. Sushmita Rai and Mr. Ahmed El Keek have joined as Energy Traders.
“Mrs. Rai, who previously worked with Maersk Tankers and AD Ports Group, and Mr. El Keek, formerly of Integr8, bring diverse experience and industry knowledge to their roles,” it said.
Additionally, Mr. Sotirios Tsesmelis has joined Shipergy in Athens as an Energy & Lubricant Trader, previously working with KPI OceanConnect.
“These strategic hires align with Shipergy’s ambitious global growth plans, supported by a USD 15 million bank finance package secured from DNB Bank in March this year. The new team members will bolster Shipergy’s ability to deliver innovative, tech-driven bunkering solutions to a growing client base worldwide,” the company added.
Daniel Rose, CEO of Shipergy, said: “We are delighted to add such dynamic and experienced professionals to Shipergy’s global team.”
“As our tech-led approach to bunkering continues to gain traction, the addition of Dennis, Sushmita, Ahmed, and Sotirios strengthens our capability to provide exceptional service and expand our footprint in key markets.”
Manifold Times previously reported Shipergy looking to establish a new regional hub in Singapore in line with its expansion strategy.
The move comes following its successful establishment of operations in Dubai, London, and Athens.
