Strengthening long-term partnerships: From the first retrofit in 2019 to new projects
Last week, we attended Nor-Shipping and were happy to reconnect with old friends, customers, and partners. One of them was Joe Sweeney, Executive Technical Director at American Seafoods — a valued customer we've worked closely with since 2019. Our collaboration began with the first retrofits on board their trawlers American Dynasty and Katie Ann, where we delivered a full IAS.
Since then, we have been back on board American Dynasty to deliver an engine safety system upgrade and completed two additional turnkey IAS retrofits for Northern Eagle and American Empress. Now, as Northern Jaeger is next in line for an upgrade, Joe Sweeney is once again in dialogue with Høglund.
“Høglund gives us very good support and has been great to cooperate with on all our projects — before, during, and after installation. This makes the whole process very smooth. The team is highly responsive, and we get immediate help with whatever problem we may have,” says Joe.
We’re grateful for the trust and recommendation, and we look forward to continuing this strong collaboration — potentially with another retrofit early next year.
