NEW YORK, NY – On Thursday, October 15, 2020, Foremost Group Chair and CEO Angela Chao took part in Capital Link’s 12th Annual New York Maritime Forum as a keynote speaker.  The event was held in partnership with DNB, and in cooperation with the New York Stock Exchange, Nasdaq, the New York City Economic Development Corporation, and the Port Authority of New York & New Jersey.

Ms. Chao discussed Foremost Group’s more than 50-year history as an American shipping company while addressing the unique value of being a privately-held company that is able to prioritize long-term actions and decisions. This includes the company’s commitment to operational excellence and track record of incorporating fuel-efficient designs and technology in its fleet of modern and eco-friendly dry bulk carriers. Taken together, she explained, Foremost Group has become a trusted, reliable partner for some of the world’s leading blue chip charterers and is well-positioned for growth in the years ahead.

Ms. Chao was joined at the event by other industry leaders, including those from Shell International Trading and Shipping, the Port Authority of New York & New Jersey, and the U.S. Department of Energy, among others.
