By the same token, Caravel Group is able to swiftly adapt to dynamic market changes while continuing to deliver tailored solutions to the maritime, metallurgical and energy industries.

“While we are a family-owned business, we remain disruptive innovators within the industry”, says Angad Banga, Caravel Group’s Chief Operating Officer and Harry’s son. “We are able to leverage my father’s thirty years of commodities experience, our significant capital base, our world-class management team and our start-up mentality while running what is considered to be a traditional business from Hong Kong; perhaps the most economically dynamic region on Earth”.

“While Hong Kong is important to our global strategy, we recognise that Singapore and Hong Kong complement one other as places of business”, says Harry.“Hong Kong is the doorway to China while Singapore allows companies to more easily access Southeast Asia. Businesses today need to attract world-class talent and with our global scale and Asian focus; we have been able to do just that in order to achieve success across Asia and in the key international markets in which we operate”.

Harry concludes: “The world is constantly changing and we understand the importance of adapting to new business challenges in order to achieve success. With ongoing developments taking place across China, the growth markets of ASEAN member countries and the Chinese government’s ‘One Belt – One Road’ initiative connecting China to the world, all eyes are on Asia. As Caravel Group moves forwards, we fully intend to be part of Asia’s economic success story as it continues to gain momentum”.
