Rickmers-Linie expands global presence with new office in Singapore

RICKERS LINIE has established a new company Rickmers-Linie (Singapore) Pte Ltd to strengthen its presence in South East Asia, which will operate out of offices co-located with Rickmers Shipmanagement at 11 Keppel Road, Singapore.

In an Asian Shipper enews story that appeared on Saturday, January 12, this news was misstated as a buyout, which it was not. We apologise for the mischaracterisation and any difficulty our error caused.

Rickmers-Linie (Singapore) has taken over all responsibilities for Rickmers-Linie's activities from its former agents, Horizon Shipping.

Rickmers-Linie is one of the world's leading specialists in the global transportation of break bulk, heavy lift and project cargo by sea.

With regular sailings and reliable schedules, the company has set new industry standards. The "Round-The-World Pearl String Service" connects the core business areas of the world. Liner services between the US, Europe and the Middle East/India as well as special charter sailings on demand add value for the globally active customers.

The company belongs to Rickmers Group, which offers diversified activities in the segments of maritime assets, maritime services and logistics services. Rickmers Group currently manages a fleet of more than 115 vessels.
