OW Bunker merges Swedish operation


Supplier says clients will benefit from improved centralized structure and pooling of knowledge.



OW Bunker, one of the world’s leading suppliers and traders of marine fuel, has today announced that it has merged its Stockholm office into one main location in Gothenburg, the company’s head office in the region.

"The move will further strengthen the company’s presence in Sweden, as well as providing all customers with a centralized team, a single point of contact, access to greater resource and knowledge, as well as quality products and services," the company said in a statement.

As part of the merger Svante Carlberg will move from Stockholm to Gothenburg, where he will carry on servicing customers associated with the Stockholm office to ensure continuity.

Ingvar Modin is retiring after 13 years of service. The new centralized operation will continue to be led by Managing Director, Lenah Soldan.

The latest development follows the launch of the company's physical supplies in Sweden in July 2009.

As well as Gothenburg, the company has the capability to provide product deliveries in all west coast ports, and ports in southern Sweden, including Helsingborg and Malmö.

OW Bunker also provides an offshore service out of Gothenburg for customers that do not want to deviate from their routes, saving time, as well as associated in-port costs.
