Finnish bulker owner ESL Shipping has appointed Toni Ronnberg to the role of commercial director as it continues its integration of Sweden's AtoB@C Shipping.

The company added 30 smaller bulkers through the takeover in 2018, bringing its fleet to about 50 dry cargo vessels.

Ronnberg, born in 1980, will join in March from Stena Recycling, where since 2013 he has been responsible for its steel, foundry and manufacturing businesses.
