Blands celebrates through growth

摘要

Mh Bland celebrates 200 years in business next year. It dominates Gibraltar's tourist sector with tours, travel, the cable car, dolphins and cruise ships. Not surprisingly, Bland offers agency representation on both sides of the strait, in Gibraltar, Algeciras and Ceuta under the 'three ports, one team' banner. Talks are also continuing with Tangier.rn"We handle 140-160 ships a month," says director Ian Penfold. "They come for crew changes, spare parts, provisioning, repairs, medical supplies and bunkers." There is a limited time for supplying in between bunkering, so the company operates three launches. One of these, the 22-kt Swordfish, takes stores andrncrews to ships both in the harbour and off port limits. Fresh water, lube oils and bunkers must be taken on board in port limits, not to the east of the Rock.
