Perret Associates has been involved in the coal market since 2000 from different and complementary angles: trading, analysis, research, forecast and advisory. The activities are currently mainly focused on the steam coal market but the company is also expanding into metallurgical coal.
Perret Associates has been involved in the dry bulk freight market since 1995 first on the trading side, then with market research and advisory services.
