GMS is the world’s largest buyer of ships and offshore assets for recycling and was founded by Dr Sharma in 1992, in Cumberland, USA.

Dr Sharma commented that “I am truly honoured to receive acknowledgement from a high profiled media outlet such as The Lloyd’s List for the 8th time in a row! Being featured in their Top 100 List as a pioneer in Green recycling in the shipping industry, enhances the immense responsibility I feel to serve our clients in the most efficient and meaningful manner whilst continuing our Green Team’s work investing in the education and support of the South Asian ship recycling yards and their workforce. In an industry mired with misleading and biased information, GMS has done its best to bring transparency, facilitate dialogue, promote change and encourage responsible ship recycling. We are proud to be part of an industry that has evolved and adds true value to the shipping fraternity. I personally thank all of our clients for their trust and custom over the past two decades and I am looking forward to another year of evolution and leadership!”
