In prioritising Waypoint Port Services efforts to be close to core clients, the company announced the establishment of WAYPOINT PORT SERVICES (PHILIPPINES) INCORPORATED, with the local head office based in MANILA. This new investment emphasizes the importance the company gives to being close to crewing and ship management companies, considering that they perform over 3 crew changes per hour globally daily.
Edgar Bauyon, the seasoned Country Manager with over 30 years of local and international port agency experience, has undertaken the responsibility from the Manila office to grow the business in The Philippines, mainly by supporting local crew and their managers globally.
Angelo Cachia, Managing Director of Waypoint Port Services, stated, “As a global port agent dealing with thousands of crew changes annually, it is only natural that we establish our owned offices in The Philippines to serve not only local clients that have entrusted their crew to us for many years, but also new business partners.”
Edgar Bauyon, Country Manager Philippines, commented, “As a native of this country, it is my obligation to support Filipino crew both locally and especially abroad, through our global presence with the help of the other Waypoint offices in various parts of the world. Similarly, I will ensure that every vessel entering The Republic of the Philippines receives the same quality service our company is renowned for.”
