Erasmus Shipinvest, an Athens-based manager and operator of bulkers, is to expand its scope to include new types of ships in its fleet.

Feeder containerships and LPG tankers are "in the pipeline" to join the company’s existing stock of dry cargo carriers, according to its website.

The company’s chief executive John Su was unavailable to clarify how many of these vessels the company intends to manage, over what time frame or who the clients might be.
