Hiring seafarers is a major responsibility for any company. With more people come various challenges, such as salary management, early contract terminations, illness, and other crew-related issues. Many shipowners prefer to focus on running their business rather than handling these matters directly, making it much easier to engage a professional crew manning agency to manage all seafarer-related concerns. However, choosing a reliable and competent agency is essential, as a poor decision can create even greater problems. A strong agency also maintains good relationships with shipowners, helping to attract competent seafarers and build a solid reputation that draws in more potential clients.

At our agency, we follow strict checking and verification procedures to ensure every seafarer we supply has the necessary training, skills, and qualifications stated in their certificates and licenses. All our crew members meet the standards of the STCW 95/98 Convention and comply with the ISM Code, giving shipowners confidence in the quality, professionalism, and safety of their crew.
