Alpha Navigation is at the Swire Group Seafarers' Conference in Istanbul

Today, we are at the Swire Group Seafarers' Conference in Istanbul. Since the majority of our seafarers have been with the group for more than 10 years, and some for over 20, the round-table sessions have been extremely engaging. All participants have a lot to share and discuss in a productive and constructive manner.
Alpha Navigation has partnered with Swire Group since 2003—over 21 years. That says something.
What are the criteria for determining how good a crewing agency or crew management company is? What quantitative method can truly prove you're the best?

For me, one of the key criteria is Port State Control ratings. This clearly indicates the quality of your crew and seafarers.

I feel incredibly proud of our seafarers, Swire Group, and Alpha Navigation, as well as the recognition from agencies like AMSA. Swire Group ranks number one among shipping companies, as the highest-performing operator.
