Yacht Agent Acquera Yachting announces the opening of offices in Barcelona and Palma and shortly followed by Ibiza as part of its growth strategy. The expansion supports the continued commitment to provide local market coverage and expertise in all the major superyacht markets.
The Spanish operation will be headed up by Alejo Trullas who has joined as General Manager for Spain. Trullas has a strong background in business development and strategic consulting, and is better known for his time at the luxury Marina Port Vell in Barcelona, where he was Deputy General Manager for nearly 3 years.
The opening of Spain will extend the already extensive offering of countries where Acquera is present: France, Monaco, Italy, Croatia, Montenegro, Albania, Greece and Turkey. Ultimately, the main objective is to further strengthen service capabilities and reach in order to provide a better overall client experience. The Barcelona office will also serve as a secondary HQ for the corporate team where John Shinske and Anella Alcott are based.
“I’m really excited to join the Acquera Yachting team and be part of establishing and growing the business in Spain” commented Trullas. “Spain is one of the top countries in terms of superyacht visits during the season, but it has also become a hotspot during the winter thanks to the world-class superyacht facilities ranging from marinas to shipyards, and I believe there is a huge potential for further growth”.
John Shinske said: “The launch of Spain supports the company’s expansion plans and firmly positions us as the fastest-growing agency in the industry. We will continue to build on this momentum through our customer-centric culture and value proposition to our clients”
