The year 2007 kept all in ESM and SIMS gainfully occupied and literally bound to an ever-active and exciting schedule- at least for most part of the year! We closed the last chapter/month of the year equally in style and finesse with achievements and stretching our milestone to another limit for the forthcoming year 2008.

In general, there has been an unprecedented growth in the shipping world and also a high degree of crisis over the crew and manning as a spill off of that growth. Unfortunately not very many in the industry decided to tackle the bull in the horn and took steps for counter measures.

In ESM, we are proud to say- we did go a long way in to contribute towards the future growth of the crewing industry through our exceptional training facilities in Mumbai and Lonavala. As this has been applauded worldwide, we want to stress that in reality it is just a drop in the ocean of training needs across the world. We do hope, before it’s too late, more like minded agencies will join us in our endeavour of such serious maritime training required in the industry.

This has amply underlined the social responsibilities that we deliver in every sphere of our business and dealings to the outside world. We are happy to emphasize that this one message which will continue to guide us for the coming year 2008 as well as in the future.
