Company Blomerin Marine Ltd participated in the 7th FMB East European Fertilizer Conference & Exhibition 2009. The conference was held in Riga, Latvia on 1-3 July. It drew over 400 participants from 40 countries.
Despite the continuing pressure of the economic crisis, low raw material prices, and a relatively low demand, most of the conference participants considered it to be a success.
No matter how gloomy or contradictory economic forecasts maybe, the recession is going to be over sooner or later and it’s very important to keep in touch with the market players, as well as your long term, new or potential partners.
Blomerin Marine Ltd has also considered transportation of fertilizers and chemicals as an essential constituent of the company business and is actively pursuing this segment of the market. Shipments from the Baltic and the Black Sea ports to Europe, North America, and South Eastern Asia are currently the areas of focus for Blomerin Marine Ltd and the company is looking to develop partnerships for organizing combined (part cargo) shipments to these destinations.
In the second quarter 2009 the company organized several combined shipments of pig iron and sulfur of different charterers from the Black sea ports to China.
