'These planned strategic acquisitions mark a significant milestone in our long-term strategy as we expand into key maritime markets in Southeast Asia,' said Vantage Corp CEO Andresian D'Rozario. 'Establishing a presence in the Greater China region is a critical step toward realizing our vision of a tri-hub operational model across Asia, anchored in Singapore, Hong Kong, and Mainland China. This move not only strengthens our geographic footprint but also positions us to better serve our global client base across key trade routes. By integrating our expanding Asia operations with our growing and scaling presence in the Middle East, we are creating a unified and scalable business that enhances operational efficiency, deepens market penetration, and enables us to capture synergies across regions. Looking ahead, M&A will continue to remain central to our strategy, with plans to enter the United States and European market.' Each LOI outlines a framework for the potential acquisition of the respective companies, subject to the completion of customary due diligence, regulatory approvals, and the execution of definitive agreements. In line with Vantage (BVI) Corporation's confidentiality obligations, further details will be disclosed upon finalization of definitive agreements.
