IMEC members are individual shipping companies, both owners and managers, large and small, operating all types of ships including dry bulk, container, cruise liners, livestock carriers, reefers and tankers. Together they operate more than 11,200 vessels registered in more than 60 different countries and employ in excess of 290,000 seafarers of 68 different nationalities.
Mr. Gkountaras has managed to be elected in the first place indicating the strong support and recognition received from fellow IMEC Members who attended the AGM and continued his already active course and participation within IMEC which began last year with his election on IMEC’s Recruitment & Training Committee.
