May 24, 2024 (newstodate): Blue Water Shipping marked a strong performance on CASS' Top-10 list of Norwegian seafood forwarders in April 2024.
   BWS Norway thus landed as #3 on the list with 1,567 tonnes of seafood, equal to an 11.34 percent share of the freight forwarder market, after growing by 132.68 percent, y-o-y, in April.
   BWS Norway first entered the Top-10 list in December 2022 and after a period as #5, the company now climbed further up the scale in April to the #3 position for the first time.
   -In 2023, BWS will be handling some 35,000 tonnes of perishables air cargo out of Europe, of which Norway alone will be contributing slightly more than half, Jesper Nielsen, Blue Water Head of Air Perishables, said at Blue Water's Seafood Logistics Seminar in Oslo on November 15, 2023.
   -The process has proved a success; in 2021, our volumes of perishables out of Norway by air totaled 2,500 tonnes. This increased to 6,000 tonnes in 2022, spiking in 2023 to 18,000 tonnes.
   -As these latest CASS figures show, we are indeed well underway to meet the stated goal and gaining further momentum as we move, says Morten Wurgler, BWS Norway General Manager.
   With Morten Wurgler, Blue Water General Manager Sea & Air Norway since July 1, 2022, Blue Water Norway started out with a dedicated team of six employees, soon growing to 10 people with the focus on the needs among Norwegian seafood exporters for innovative logistics solutions to bring the country's seafood exports to the global marketplace.
