Camper & Nicholsons has announced the opening of its proprietary office in Dubai. Located on the ground floor of Marina Views in Mina Rashid Marina, the new office will offer full-scale turnkey services to domestic and international clientele.
Paolo Casani, CEO of Camper & Nicholsons, said: “We continue the expansion of Camper & Nicholsons in one of the most important hubs of the yachting industry – Dubai and the Emirates. The international presence and the offering of all our services from brokerage, new construction project management, charter, crew and yacht management services to insurance will give us an excellent opportunity to be closer to our international clients and local superyacht owners.”
Camper & Nicholsons is the world’s oldest yachting company, founded in 1782 as a shipyard in Gosport, England. The company’s 240th anniversary celebrations include a special book produced in a limited-edition run of 1,000 copies and distributed to yacht owners, clients, and partners.
The company has also launched a new website and created a statistical yachting database providing information on more than 16,000 yachts currently afloat, as well as software programmes for yacht, charter and crew management.
The global brokerage house, which has about 200 yachts in its fleet, has its operational headquarters in Monaco and is owned by Hong Kong conglomerate Lai Sun.
