Penglai Zhongbai Jinglu Ship Industry Co chairman Wang Hong has booked several weeks in Greece starting at the end of the month to meet shipowners as the country's vacation season winds down, according to commercial sources. Shipyard officials confirm that their boss is Athens bound.
How many Greek shipowners he will meet is unknown but observers expect Wang may want to nail down kamsarmax orders with Laskaridis Shipping and Lou Kollakis' Chartworld Shipping, in addition to scouting for new customers.
