V.Ships is the world's largest provider of independent ship management and related marine services to the shipping industry:
• An international company with 44 offices located in 26 countries employing 1,100 office staff and 22,500 sea staff; servicing a fleet of over 600 vessels encompassing most major ship types.
• A brand which covers, in addition to its core ship management activities, a broad range of maritime services including crewing, leisure, financial, consulting, commercial and agency services.
Since the company's formation in Monaco in 1984, V.Ships has grown by opening new offices in major maritime centres around the world and by adding new services to it's product range. In recent years, organic growth has been supplemented by inorganic growth.
In 1998, V.Ships acquired Celtic Marine - an Isle of Man headquartered company specialising in the provision of manning services to ship owners. In January 2001, V.Ships acquired Acomarit, a leading ship management company, to create the world's largest ship management and shipping services group.
Following these two acquisitions, the V.Ships group has implemented a new branding strategy. This website explains the broad range of services - ship management, manning, leisure management, commercial management, financial services, consulting services and ship agency - now provided to customers under the V.Ships brand name.
The V.Ships Group has grown into a substantial organisation covering a wide range of service areas.
