Huisman has been honoured with the title of ‘Great A Supplier of the Year 2023 (strategic supplier)’ by COSCO Shipping Shipyard (Nantong) Co., Ltd. & COSCO Shipping (Qidong) Offshore Co., Ltd. This award was presented during the 2023 supplier conference and the first green supply chain sustainable development conference, themed ‘Chasing dreams in the blue ocean, joining hands for the future.’
Since 2019, Huisman has established a solid partnership with COSCO Shipping Shipyard (Nantong) Co., Ltd. & COSCO Shipping (Qidong) Offshore Co., Ltd.
