Italian superyacht builder Baglietto has opened a new Singapore office as it seeks to conquer new markets in Asia.

The new representative office will be managed by Alvin Chua of Monaco Yacht Asia, based in Singapore, who has over 30 years of experience in the Asian market.

“We’d had our eyes on Asia for some time,” says Baglietto‘s CCO Fabio Ermetto. “We wanted to find a partner capable of developing and promoting our brand in a market that is considerably far and different from ours. Alvi Chua, from Monaco Yacht Asia, surely has the experience and expertise to help us achieve this important objective.”

Monaco Yacht Asia will also serve as a qualified service point for Baglietto in the area.

The La Spezia-based boatbuilder, which has just sold the ninth unit in its DOM line, is currently preparing for the European boat show season.

At the Cannes Yachting Festival, from 12-17 September 2023, Baglietto is exhibiting the 52-metre hybrid-propulsion Baglietto T52 for the first time. The yacht will also be present at the Monaco Yacht Show (27-30 September 2023), together with the latest DOM133 launched by Baglietto, MY Lee.

“We are thrilled to be starting the new season,” says Ermetto. “We closed the nautical year with a sale and are now going to take part in the forthcoming international boat shows with our latest vessels, which have already met with huge success: eight units of the T52 model have been sold so far, and the sale of as many as nine DOMs as well as the T60 and other custom projects, means that production is planned until 2026.”
