Finland’s ESL Shipping has succeeded in selling its two biggest ships nearly a year after revealing they were surplus to requirements.
The company, owned by Aspo Group, said last April that it was aiming to offload the 56,000-dwt supramaxes Arkadia and Kumpula (both built 2012).
Now it has signed a memorandum of understanding with HGF Denizcilik in Turkey, which already owns a handysize bulker and a multipurpose vessel.
