Alfonso will be responsible for managing the development and implementation of the Liberian Registry’s global sales, marketing, and service assurance strategy.
Together with the Registry’s business development group and regional managers, he will further enhance co-ordination of business development and service initiatives, while expanding the Liberian Registry’s leading position in an increasingly competitive shipping industry.
LISCR CEO Scott Bergeron says, “Alfonso’s unrivalled experience will be invaluable in managing the Registry’s development of new, strategic markets and of new products and services for our clients, helping the Liberian Registry continue its impressive evolution and growth. While his role as CCO will have a global perspective, Alfonso will continue to provide direct day-to-day management for the Japanese and Central & South American markets.”
