Boluda Towage Vice president Vicente Boluda Ceballos and Jim Iskes of Dutch company Iskes Towage & Salvage have signed the definitive purchase agreement of Iskes Towage & Salvage in Amsterdam today (16 February).
The purchase of Iskes strengthens Boluda Towage’s position as a market leader in port towage and sustainable maritime solutions in Europe, opening up further expansion into new ports in the Netherlands and Germany, and entry of the company into Portugal.
Iskes Towage & Salvage will operate as a separate entity directly under Boluda’s headquarters in Valencia, thus continuing to manage the abovementioned port towage activities.
The acquisition of this company will strengthen and expand Boluda Towage’s offshore activities in northwest Europe, with the Baltic, Kiel Canal and Polish markets as the principal focus.
