New employee at Dan-Bunkering Singapore


Cindy Tan joins Singapore-based bunker trading firm to work as an Accounts Executive.



Singapore-based bunker trading company Dan-Bunkering (Singapore) Pte. Ltd. - part of United Shipping & Trading Company (USTC) group - has announced the addition of a new employee at its recently launced office in the island city-state.

Cindy Tan has joined the company to work as an Accounts Executive.

Opened in May 2009, the new office is said to have already attracted a lot of market interest in just a few months of trading.

According to company, the principal reasons why the new office has enjoyed a successful start have been the support of a 'financially strong' parent company and the dedication of its employees.

"With the opening of the Singapore office, Dan-Bunkering has not only created greater potential for growth but is also branding the company as a fast moving and innovative business," the Dan-Bunkering said in July.

"Globally speaking, the Singapore office is also of great importance to Dan-Bunkering Ltd. – not only because of the physical presence in the highly competitive and rapidly growing Singapore market, but also because of the attention the office enjoys. As Dan-Bunkering aims to be even more present and gain an even stronger market position, the positive attention is very beneficial," the company added.
