Turkish delight for Flensburger

U.N Ro-Ro, Istanbul, awarded contracts to Flensburger Schiffbau-Gesellschaft for two 3,735 lane metre RoRo vessels. The Turkish company has already ordered twelve vessels from Flensburger, of which ten have been delivered to date. Together with these two newbuildings U.N Ro-Ro has ordered in total 14 ships at Flensburger-Schiffbaugesellschaft.

This is Flensburger“s most successful series since Flensburg Shipyard being a subsidiary of the Oldendorff Group. Thirteen years ago U.N Ro-Ro was founded by the Turkish Trucker Association. The transports lead solely via the Balkan land routes to Central-Europe. Due to the political instabilities and risks involved on the transport routes on land, U.N Ro-Ro decided as one of the first shipping companies to implement the concept “From Road to Sea”. Daily services with extreme efficient RoRo-Freight Ferries from Istanbul, Turkey, to Trieste, Italy, were the result. U.N Ro-Ro carries nearly 200,000 trucks a year.
