Bomin expands Japan bunkering team, relocates to new office


Shogo Miura is appointed business development manager as bunker firm moves to new office in Tokyo.



Bomin Group, a leading global physical supplier and trader of marine fuel oil, has today announced the appointment of Shogo Miura as its new business development manager in Japan. The company has also just moved to a new office in Tokyo, on February 18.

In a statement, Bomin said: "Shogo Miura brings over 20 years of marketing and sales experience to the company, ten of which have been spent in the bunkering industry. Fluent in English, Japanese and Korean, Shogo Miura will be responsible for building strong relationships with Bomin's customers and further broadening the company's reach amongst ship owners and operators within the region."

Bomin says it has seen "significant growth and demand for bunkers in Japan", which has led to the firm's decision to move to new office premises.

"Product quality remains a critical factor for customers in the region and ship owners and operators have responded positively to Bomin's policy of all products being delivered under a Bomin specific Bunker Delivery Note (BDN). This ensures that the company takes full responsibility for the end-to-end supply process from order through to delivery, and that products are delivered in the right quantity and to the right quality specifications," the company explained.

Lars Doring, Regional Manager, Asia Pacific, Bomin Group, remarked: "We are delighted to welcome Shogo Miura to the Bomin Japan team. His experience and knowledge of the industry will help drive further growth in the region. In Japan we see an increasing amount of customers responding to the real expertise that Bomin offers in a progressively complex market, in conjunction with providing the most professional bunkering services and solutions that are founded on integrity, and delivering quality at every juncture. We are confident that our team in the region will continue to go from strength to strength."
