The Swedish Club’s staff in Greece are moving to new offices in Piraeus. The new offices, on Akti Miaouli, open for business on Monday October 8.
Clas Rydén, General Manager of The Swedish Club Greece, says: “We have a strong team based in Piraeus and it has been evident for some time that we needed more space. This became more pressing with the addition of new team members. Fortunately, we have found an ideal new location on Piraeus’ main shipping avenue. There are no excuses for getting lost as it is only 150 m from our current location!”
The Swedish Club opened an office in Greece in 1980, manned by a team of three. The current office consists of a team of 14. As at September 1, Greek, Italian and Middle East-owned entries managed from Piraeus represented around 27 per cent of the Club’s P&I and H&M portfolios in tonnage terms.
Clas Rydén adds: “The new office provides the space we need to continue to grow, in line with the Club’s expanding membership in the region.”
