Trai Thien Locks In Fleet Capacity With Long-Term Shipping Contracts
HO CHI MINH CITY, VIETNAM, Oct. 14, 2011 (LevelStock.com News) -- Trai Thien USA (OTC Markets: TRTH) today announced that, due to growing demand for the Company's services, it has signed six long-term contracts with agents based in Singapore, Malaysia, Vietnam and the Philippines to transport nearly 1.5 million tons of cargo in Southeast Asia over the coming three to five years, representing an estimated $45 million in revenues at current rates, and accounting for approximately eighty-five percent of the current fleet's capacity.
Khanh Nguyen, President and Founder of Trai Thien USA, commented, "Even through global economic headwinds that affected so much of the worldwide shipping industry, Trai Thien managed to maintain its dry bulk shipping business and continue gaining traction in its niche Southeast Asia market space. We consider these long-term contracts to be a strong indicator of growing demand and confidence in the market, as well as the agents' confidence in Trai Thien's ability to provide professional services and accommodate growing market demand."
