“We are very impressed by the company and the solutions developed by Tero Marine and we believe the company has a great future. The management and employees in Tero Marine are doing a great job in serving customers and developing quality products for the maritime industry. There will be no organizational changes and the company will continue as a separate company” said Roger Ringstad, Group CEO of Seagull Maritime AS
