Newbuild container ship for Navios formally named in South Korea

South Korea's HJ Shipbuilding and Construction held a naming ceremony for a 7,900 TEU container ship, named Navios Cyan, at its Yeongdo shipyard in Busan on May 14.

This vessel is the first of four 7,900 TEU container ships that Greek shipowner Navios Maritime ordered from the company in 2024.

The shipbuilder originally secured an order for two vessels, with the total volume increasing to four after Navios exercised an option for two additional ships.
