Fesco is majority controlled by the group Industrial Investors, led by former energy minister Sergei Generalov.
In July, Fesco raised $640 million from selling new shares and said it would use the money to buy assets.
Last year, it also raised $420 million in two share issues as it seeks to expand its presence in Russia's key foreign-trade gateways.
It struck a deal in 2007 to buy control of the Vladivostok Commercial Sea Port. Apart from the Far East, Fesco operates on the Baltic and Baltic seas.
The total amount of container operations by companies in the group was 2.4 million 20-foot equivalent units in 2007, up 30 percent from 2006.
A Message from The Moscow Times:
Dear readers,
We are facing unprecedented challenges. Russia's Prosecutor General's Office has designated The Moscow Times as an "undesirable" organization, criminalizing our work and putting our staff at risk of prosecution. This follows our earlier unjust labeling as a "foreign agent."
These actions are direct attempts to silence independent journalism in Russia. The authorities claim our work "discredits the decisions of the Russian leadership." We see things differently: we strive to provide accurate, unbiased reporting on Russia.
We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. But to continue our work, we need your help.
Your support, no matter how small, makes a world of difference. If you can, please support us monthly starting from just $2. It's quick to set up, and every contribution makes a significant impact.
By supporting The Moscow Times, you're defending open, independent journalism in the face of repression. Thank you for standing with us.
Remind me later.
