Since its establishment in 1993, the company has evolved from a private ship repair entity into a multifaceted organization supporting the marine, offshore, and shipping industries across the Black Sea region. Through decades of operation, it has developed a diversified portfolio that encompasses technical consultancy, complex ship repairs, and general ship supply, serving as a critical support node for vessels calling at Bulgarian ports such as Varna and Burgas.
The company’s origins are rooted in marine engineering, and ship repair remains a cornerstone of its operational identity.
