Italian shipping company Grimaldi Group is continuing to sell off its older car carriers as part of its fleet renewal programme.

The shipping company has asked the Port Authority of Palermo for permission to sell the two sister ships GRANDE SCANDINAVIA and GRANDE ELLADE to London-based Bright Flag Shipping Limited. Both vessels were delivered in 2001 by South Korean shipbuilder Daewoo Shipbuilding.
