The American P&I Club celebrated 20 years in Piraeus

The American P&I Club celebrated 20 years in Piraeus with an open house, where Managers and Greece based Directors welcomed Members, colleagues, and friends, and recognized the people who have helped make SCB (Hellas) so successful.

Since 2005, the Piraeus office has become a cornerstone of the Club’s international operations. Led by Managing Director Joanna Koukouli, the SCB (Hellas) team spans claims, business development, compliance, finance, HR, and administration. Their expertise continues to strengthen the Club’s global network and deepen ties with the Greek shipping community and surrounding region.

As we mark this milestone, we reflect on the original vision: to greatly amplify the services available to the Club’s membership in Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and beyond. From New York, Houston, Hong Kong, and Shanghai to London, Limassol and Piraeus, the message remains clear: the Club remains single-mindedly committed to delivering the highest levels of service to its Members.

A special congratulations to three of the founding team Members— Dorothea Ioannou, Chief Executive Officer, Marivi Banou, Senior Claims Executive, and Annie Papadimitriou, Operations, Communications & Human Resources Manager, who also celebrate 20 years with the Club this year. Their leadership and long-standing dedication have helped shape the Club’s regional presence and global service into what it is today.

Thank you, SCB (Hellas), for 20 years of professionalism and dedication, and to our Directors and Members for their continued support. Here’s to the next 20.
