Tomini Shipping of the UAE is believed to have snapped up a supramax bulker to continue an aggressive expansion effort.

It has been named as the buyer of the 56,000-dwt Anna Bo (built 2010) from Greek owner Golden Union.

Brokers are placing a price tag of $6.5m on what would be the owner’s sixth second-hand purchase since April.

The price is in line with last done but some way from the $11.4m
