UK-Based Broker Expands into the Americas
UK-based bunker broker Lindsay Blee Wednesday announced that it is expanding its brokering operations into the Americas, effective immediately.
The new operation, Lindsay Blee Americas (LBA), will be based in Florida and will support customers across the U.S. and throughout Central and South America.
"We are very excited to launch this new operation," said James Hills, Managing Director of Lindsay Blee,
"Along with our presence in the UK and Singapore, this expansion gives our customers a true global partner capable of fuelling their fleet anywhere in the world. Our experienced staff have worked in the Americas markets and will be able to aide our clients in getting the fuel they need from quality suppliers in ports both large and small."
Lindsay Blee says its new Americas operation will be staffed initially by two broker/traders, along with two support personnel to provide "the full range of quality products and services that Lindsay Blee customers have come to expect."
"Many brokers have been consolidated into large bunkering conglomerates", says Dean Morrison of Lindsay Blee,
"We are independent and provide extensive market coverage to help ensure our clients are getting the best that the market has to offer from a truly independent source."
Lindsay Blee Americas says it is now accepting enquiries for all ports in the Americas, and can be contacted at:
