Melina Travlos has been re-elected for a second term as president of the Union of Greek Shipowners (UGS).
The head of Neptune Group of companies, which includes carrier owner and operator Neptune Lines as well as a dry bulk outfit, Neptune Dry Management, will lead the nation’s shipowner association for another three years.
Travlos became the first woman to spearhead UGS after 106 years when she was elected in 2022.
Michael Chandris and Andonis Lemos were re-elected vice presidents.
Earlier in December, Gaby Bornheim was re-elected president of the German Shipowners’ Association (VDR). The managing director of Peter Döhle Schiffahrts also became the first woman at the helm of VDR in 2021. She will hold this office until 2027.
