Okskaya Sudoverf has taken an active part in the II Global Fishery Forum and Seafood Expo (13-15 September, Saint-Petersburg).

“Active work at the exhibition, direct communication with potential customers and partners gives  Okskaya Sudoverf the opportunity to realize its fullest potential and demonstrate the company’s capacity and achievements”, says Aleksandr Burkov, Commercial Director of the shipyard.

The showcase of Okskaya Sudoverf attracted strong interest among the exhibition participants. The visitors were given a presentation of services and opportunities offered by one of Russia’s leading shipyards. Besides, Okskaya Sudoverf provided professional consulting services.

Aleksandr Burkov:

“Today, Okskaya Sudoverf has entered a new level of development. Our work with fishing companies had started long before 2017 when the state began providing quotas to support upgrading of the fleet. The modernization of production facilities performed in recent years has let the shipyard considerably expand the range of newbuildings and face the biggest shipbuilding challenges at a traditionally high quality level. High interest to the activities of our company shown by the exhibition participants just confirms that”.
