King Ocean Gulf Alliance (KOGA Shipping) is putting the pieces into place to facilitate expansion. The company has named former F.H. Bertling Logistics’ director of business development, Rasmus Frandsen as chartering director. 

For the past 10 years Frandsen has held various roles in chartering and logistics in Europe, Asia, and the USA. As noted, most recently he acted as director of business development for F.H. Bertling Logistics where he developed commercial and chartering activity for the group and their clients.

“Frandsen has partnered with bulk, breakbulk and project clients across three continents. His depth of knowledge, experience, and ability to create long-term relationships align perfectly with KOGA’s mission,” the company’s statement reads.

At KOGA Shipping, Frandsen will lead the chartering and tonnage procurement activity for KOGA focusing initially on building voyages via Asia and Europe. In addition, he will also work with clients to develop land-side solutions requiring terminal, rail, and inland logistics for projects of all sizes.

Frandsen will be based at KOGA’s headquarters in Houston, Texas.
