Lucas and Luna dive into the turnaround of a 70-year-old Japanese shipbuilder that nearly collapsed when the container shipping boom went bust in 2023. By pivoting from mega-container vessels to specialized LNG carriers and leveraging decades of welding expertise, the company clawed its way back from a billion-dollar loss. Lucas breaks down the specific cost-cutting measures, the bet on liquefied natural gas, and how a centuries-old industry adapted to a world where the S&P 500 just hit 7,483 but shipyards were idled. A lesson in industrial survival that doesn't make headlines but keeps global trade moving. #Shipbuilder #Turnaround #Restructuring #LNG #ContainerShipping #JapaneseBusiness #IndustrialRevival #DistressedBusiness #Recovery #Maritime #SupplyChain #Business #Finance #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #TheTurnaroundPodcast #ShippingCrisis #Manufacturing Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
