le cluster maritime français<br />

SMO has been a shipowner since 2004. Their 3 ocean-going vessels are operated by A.B.C.R.M., mainly on the Rhône<br />

vary: steel scrap, steel, grain, cement, heavy lifts. This is a dynamic company that pays particular attention to safety and<br />

the environment, and seeks to develop a long-term relationship with its customers.<br />

Agence <strong>Maritime</strong> de l’Ouest<br />

Agence <strong>Maritime</strong> de l’Ouest was founded in 1935 in Paimpol, Brittany. Its main activity was shortsea transport. The<br />

company has since extended its fields of activities to owner, ship manager, ship operator, ship broker, stevedore and<br />

freight forwarder. Its main spheres of activity are dry bulk transport, conventional and heavy lift cargoes, engineering<br />

and transport, and tugboat operation.<br />

d’Armor”, registered in Paimpol. They extract marine calcium amendments and siliceous<br />

materials from proprietary and third-party deposits along the coasts of northern Brittany<br />
