Textainer moves for Seaco
NewsIt has emerged that Textainer is in talks to acquire Seaco Global, a deal that would almost certainly raise issues about the level of market concentration in the container leasing industry.
Container leasing specialist opens its new Middle Eastern regional office in Dubai, UAE.
Seaco has established a permanent office in the Middle East, a region that was previously covered from its office in Mumbai.
“Seaco is strongly positioned as the most diversified container leasing company in the world and our Dubai representation will enable us to ensure we have excellence and know-how in the region to serve our diversified market,” said Christophe Cariou, Marketing Manager at Seaco. “The significant regional importance of Seaco’s Tank container business and container resale activities was one of the drivers behind relocation of the regional office to Dubai with its time zone and close proximity to customers, key vendors and industry partners. Seaco now has an optimum balance of presence and support to our regional and global customer base as well as the more specialist tank and container sales activities”.
Seaco’s portfolio of equipment available from its Dubai team includes: dry freight containers, ISO bulk liquid, powder & gas tanks, reefers and temperature-controlled units plus special containers for bulky and heavy items.
