According to BusinessWorld, Cebu-based Aznar Shipping Corp. is expanding its fleet and exploring new inter-island routes to capitalize on growing cargo and passenger demand across the Visayas. The company plans to add three vessels to its current fleet of 10 ships.

The expansion comes as inter-island shipping demand in the Visayas region rises, driven by economic growth and increased trade activity. Aznar Shipping aims to connect more islands and improve logistics for businesses and travelers.

The company is also investing in vessel upgrades to enhance service reliability. This move positions Aznar Shipping to compete more effectively in the Philippine domestic shipping market, which is a key component of the country's supply chain.
