Testimonials from Ship Masters & Fleet Managers
"We needed 18 pallets of fresh provisions and emergency main engine fuel valve spindles delivered to Kandla outer anchorage prior to our voyage across the Arabian Sea. Vanguard dispatched their supply boat within 4 hours. Freshness was exceptional and all technical parts carried original OEM certificates. Truly a professional ship supplier."
Capt. Henrik Lindqvist
Master, M/T Nordic Voyager
Nordic Tankers Management Ltd
"Their technical chandlery desk is run by actual marine engineers. When ordering IMPA 59/61 series deck winches and hydraulic seals, they caught an incorrect flange sizing on our requisition and contacted us before delivery, saving us from a costly mistake. That level of technical diligence is unheard of among ordinary port suppliers."
Eng. Dimitris Kouros
Fleet Technical Superintendent
Aegean Bulk Marine S.A.
"During an unexpected 12-hour turnaround at Cochin, Vanguard supplied full bonded provisions, fresh galley stores, and coordinated our annual life-raft class survey concurrently. Both tasks were finished well before cargo operations completed. No delays to our sailing schedule."
Capt. Sun-Woo Park
Senior Master, M/V Pacific Horizon
East-West Container Feeder Lines
"Supplied high-purity tank cleaning chemicals and 500-bar hydro-blasting rigs for a critical cargo hold changeover from palm oil to food-grade ethanol. The laboratory test certificates were accepted immediately by the cargo surveyor. Superb reliability."
Chief Engineer Marco Rossi
Chief Marine Engineer
Serenissima Chemical Tankers
"Vanguard handles our offshore supply boats during crew transfers and supply drops off Singapore roadstead. Their launches are clean, crew members adhere strictly to PPE standards, and logistics tracking is clear and punctual."
Captain Arthur Vance

"Consistent invoicing, zero hidden port surcharges, and instant electronic PODs (Proof of Delivery) signed by the Master. Vanguard is our premier contracted vendor for all Indian port calls."
