Trader leaves UAE bunker firm


Experienced trader leaves company after five years.



Bunker supply firm Bominflot Fujairah LLC. has revealed that bunker trader Rani Manesh has left the company.

Speaking to Bunker Index, bunker trader Mahesh Mohan confirmed today that Rani Manesh was no longer working for the Fujairah-based firm. She had been principally dealing with customer bunker enquiries for the UAE market up until her departure around a week ago.

According to Mohan, Manesh had left the company for personal reasons. As regards her next career move, it is currently unclear whether she will continue to work within the bunker industry.

Manesh joined Bominflot Fujairah as a trader on September 10, 2007, having previously worked in the bunker industry for seven years. Her previous post was as operations assistant for Fujairah-based trading and broking firm FNSA Fuels Ltd.
