Aberdeen based Marine technology company, Seall has secured a
partnership deal with leading marine electronics service provider, Elcome,
to expand its global footprint. The partnership
agreement will expand the distribution of Seall’s ECDIS (Electronic Chart
Display and Information System) products in Asia, Africa and Europe.
Elcome, one of the world’s largest maritime systems integrators,
is headquartered in Dubai with offices throughout the Middle East, India,
Singapore, Sri Lanka and Spain. It specialises in providing technology-led
solutions and services to the maritime, defence, energy, security, critical
infrastructure, yachting and fishing industries.
Seall’s
team of software and IT specialists apply intuitive technology to simplify and
streamline the way data is displayed, used, and shared from shore-to-ship and
ship-to-shore. Its IMO (International Maritime Organization) approved ECDIS is one of the first marine software systems to
include a multi-touch screen interface, making it one of the simplest ECDIS
systems to operate in the maritime market.
Barry Booth, Chief Commercial Officer (CCO) of Seall, stated, “this
strategic partnership marks a turning point for Seall’s evolution as we are now
able to deliver our technology across a number of
key markets across the globe. By partnering with Elcome, we can ensure
customers are buying our products from a trustworthy and accomplished
distributor, continuing to deliver value for them, wherever they may be in the
world.”
Elcome’s
Executive Director Jimmy Grewal, added “we are delighted to partner with Seall
to help expand its navigation solutions into new and existing markets. Seall’s
reputation for developing cutting-edge, innovative software is indicative in
that it powers some of the maritime industry’s most recognisable brands. We are
looking forward to working with the company to ensure more vessel operators and
crews benefit from this technology.”
