Singapore’s Bengal Tiger Line (BTL) has announced that industry veteran Bill Smart is retiring as the container feeder operator’s chief executive.
Smart will step back at the end of March after 35 years with the company but continue on BTL’s board of directors.
“On behalf of the board, I would like to thank Bill for his exceptional tenure with the company. His leadership and initiative have brought BTL to where it is today, and we are ever grateful for his contributions,” said Philip Clausius, a BTL board member.
Andrew Winter, who has spent nearly 24 years at feeder giant X-press Feeders, has been named as his replacement.
Winter will take over as BTL’s CEO and start handover duties from February, the company said in a social media post on LinkedIn.
Bengal Tiger Line was founded in 1986 in Hamburg and settled in Singapore in 2009. The company was acquired in 2018 by Singapore-based private equity firm CMIA Capital Partners, and in 2022, Tim Hartnoll-led private equity venture HICO Investment Group took over the operator for an undisclosed sum.
