General Doelhe Danautic initiates operations in Goa PANAJI: Doelhe Danautic, part of Peter Doelhe group, on Friday announced its growth plans by initiating operations in Goa. “The entry into the Goa market would be an addition to our operations in Isle of Man, the UK, Chile, Poland, Ukraine, Romania, Russia, the Philippines, and Mumbai and Delhi in India,” company Managing Director, Mr Daniel Chopra said here. Mr Chopra said that Goa has tremendous opportunities in the shipping industry as in hospitality, travel and tourism, pharmacy, ship management and manning, and the logistic sector because the land is rich in minerals and ores. The company has already inked a three-year contract with the Vedanta group's Sesa Goa company to transport coal from Australia to Goa, he said. “We are also in talks with the Dempo group of companies and Fomento group for cargo handling,” Mr Chopra said. The company also eyes the offshore casino market in Goa. “We are looking at casino ship management, crewing and technical support,” he said. Goa is the only state to have offshore casinos mounted on the ship anchored in state waters. - PTI
