Company History

Our family company operates in the shipping industry in the 2nd generation. As an additional approach in the past trading actions the family Krohn started to get involved in the shipping industry in the mid 70s of the previous century.

In 1991 the chartering company ASC “Alster Ship” Chartering GmbH Co. KG was established whose success in the European market strengthened the decision to build-up its own ship management company in 2001.
Today we manage a fleet of 15 bulk Vessels that mainly operate in the pan-European and north african market and are firmly positioned as a qualified service company for ship owning companies.
