UK-based Lindsay Blee & Co Ltd. has announced that it has expanded its bunker brokering business into the Americas with the launch of a new office.

The new operation, Lindsay Blee Americas LLC (LBA), is based in Florida and has been set up to support customers in North, Central and South America.

Lindsay Blee Americas will be staffed initially by two broker/traders and two support personnel, the company confirmed today.

"We are very excited to launch this new operation," commented 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 aid our clients in getting the fuel they need from quality suppliers in ports both large and small.

Bunker broker Dean Morrison remarked: "Many brokers have been consolidated into large bunkering conglomerates. 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 will operate under the Lindsay Blee model with a focus on market expertise, quality and customer service combined with truly objective, independent advice," the company added.
