Island Energies' new corporate identity was presented at a special event in Limassol, with the participation of representatives of the business and shipping community.
In her greeting, Shipping Deputy Minister of the Republic of Cyprus, Marina Hadjimanolis, referred to the importance of the presence and activity of Cypriot businesses with an international reach in the shipping sector.
The Deputy Minister noted that the new corporate identity is much more than a simple change of image, as it marks the beginning of a new chapter and reflects the group's strategic ambition to evolve while maintaining the values and relationships of trust it has built since 1992.
She made special mention of the group's founder, Chrysostomos Papavassiliou, attributing the successful course of the last three decades to his vision and leadership, while praising his practical social work, underlining that "successful entrepreneurship can go hand in hand with a genuine sense of responsibility towards society and the well-being of our fellow human beings," highlighting Island Energies' contribution to maritime and energy activity, as well as the importance of investing in know-how, reliability and innovation.
Hadjimanolis also referred to the significant importance that companies such as Island Energies have for Cyprus itself, as they highlight the strength and international orientation of the domestic shipping complex, strengthening the country's position as a recognised and competitive international shipping center.
In closing, the Shipping Deputy Minister conveyed the warm congratulations of the President of the Republic, Nikos Christodoulides, and the government, expressing the pride of the state for the achievements of the group and the certainty that it will continue to make a valuable contribution to global shipping and the Cypriot economy, linking the development of the Group with the broader prospects of Cypriot shipping and the country's position in the international shipping environment.
