About us
SAMBU SHIPPING has been founded since 1967. And, for the past five decades, we achieved the impossible with the challenging spirit and daring activism. For South Korea, which had petrochemical factories but did not have ships to transport petrochemical products, our foundation was a significant starting point marking the beginning of sea transportation. To make sure safe handling and transportation of hazardous liquid materials, we have been committed to our research efforts and traing under a strong sense of responsibility which have been ensuring prevention of accidents. With our commitment to zero-accident and safety-first policy, we will grow into a company that is trusted by our customers even more.
With our experience and know-how of five decades in transportation, we will take pride as the leader in our field of business. The members of SAMBU will stay committed to safety, which is our priority, in thirty years, and fifty years in the future, for our journey that will continue into the future with our customers. Thank you.
