Greece’s Laskaridis group has made a rare foray into the secondhand market for a tanker to replenish its fleet of small product carriers.
Flagship family company Lavinia Corp has bought the 18,000-dwt Chemical Aquarius (built 2012) for more than $11.5m, according to market sources in Athens.
Laskaridis brothers Panos and Thanassis are best known for their dry bulk and reefer fleets.
