Yangzijiang inks order contracts to build five vessels

The five order contracts, along with two more last month, are worth $546.36m.

Yangzijiang Shipbuilding entered order agreements to build three 82,000DWT and two 325,000DWT bulk carriers, according to a media release.

One of the 82,000DWT vessels was ordered by Kambara Kisen from Japan, which has its own shipbuilding company under Tsuneishi Holdings Corporation. The customer for the two larger bulk carriers is also from Asia.

The smaller bulk carriers will be built at the Group’s Taicang yard, where Jiangsu Yangzi-Mitsui Shipbuilding Co., Ltd is based.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
