Danica, which has a strong presence in European crew supply markets, has added an office location in Philippines capital Manila giving it access to Filipino seafarers.
The Philippines is the world’s largest supplier of crew to international shipping and Danica’s office will be helmed by Dimitris Liolios who the company said had extensive experience in the Filipino crewing market.
Danica CEO Henrik Jensen commented: “Crew shortages are beginning to impact the international shipping industry and some sectors experience difficulties in recruiting top talent. Danica is well positioned to overcome this situation thanks to our widespread network of offices, all working to the same high standards, which enables us to always fill vacancies without compromising on competencies – and while still being cost-effective.”
