SHIPYARD
SATISFIED CUSTOMERS KEEP COMING BACK. ONE MEASURE OF SUCCESS FOR ANY BUSINESS IS THE LOYALTY OF ITS CLIENTS. APPLY THIS PRINCIPLE TO SHIPBUILDING BY COUNTING THE NUMBER OF VESSELS THAT A YARD HAS BUILT, AND IS CURRENTLY BUILDING, FOR A CERTAIN OWNER. TAKE TURKISH SHIPBUILDER Selah Shipyard as an example – the yard recently launched its ninth ship for Italian shipping company Marnavi. And with the keels already laid for a further two vessels, it is plain to see that this is a fruitful relationship. ShipBuilding Industry’s Tom Scott gets an update of the latest happenings from the yard.
