We are especially proud that our inaugural global crew engagement initiative, Project HappyBelly, has earned us this esteemed recognition.   Launched on 25 June, in celebration of the Day of the Seafarer, Project HappyBelly was designed to honor our diverse and hardworking crew across our global fleet. This initiative is rooted in one simple but meaningful idea: bringing joy to our crew members by celebrating one of their greatest loves on board - great food! On this special day, we encouraged our crew to unite in a day of celebration, sharing delicious meals, playing games and music, and creating moments of camaraderie and happiness. Many of our crew held joyous gatherings on board their vessels with sumptuous feasts and wished one another “Happy Day of the Seafarer”. Some of our crew and vessesl even went the extra mile to create fun-filled musical performances and played games on board. This nomination is a recognition of our ongoing commitment to nurturing a culture of respect and care within our workplace. Special thanks to the distinguished panel of judges. We extend our congratulations to all the other deserving finalists. May the best company win on 11 October!
