Headed by Thies Holm, GAC Germany will offer ship agency, husbandry, bunker fuels, dry dock and other services, working alongside the group’s ship spares logistics specialist, GAC Marine Logistics GmbH, which has been operating at the port since 2014.

Shipowners and operators in the energy, dry and liquid bulk, automotive and other sectors will benefit from our increased presence.”
