The market for smaller vessels has yet to experience a noticeable improvement, and this can be felt at Norwegian Tschudi Shipping Company, which in addition to its shipping activities also operates in several other business segments, such as logistics, offshore, ship management, and the Arctic. But where the other business areas, according to CEO Jon Edvard Sundnes, are developing positively, the shipping business is lagging behind and is currently not profitable for the company.
"The conventional shipping business is marred by operating in a market for smaller ships that has yet to experience a noticeable improvement.

We've seen some improvements in certain areas at times, but the segment is currently not profitable," he tells ShippingWatch.
