For 93 years, Visakhapatnam Port Authority has served as one of India's premier gateways to global trade. For more than five decades, HSL has been proud to build the vessels that serve it.
Our partnership began in 1970 with Shanti, the first vessel HSL built for the Port. What started as a single order has grown into a lasting relationship: eleven vessels delivered, and two 60T tugs now taking shape at our yard. Every one of them reflects the trust VPA has placed in HSL.
Sharing the same harbour has made us more than neighbours. It has made us partners in India's maritime growth. As VPA enters its next chapter, HSL stands ready to build alongside it.
