About Us

Kambara Kisen Co., Ltd., established in 1903 as a coastal shipping entity based in Hiroshima, Japan is the root of Kambara Kisen Singapore Pte Ltd.

As the main stream business of Kambara Kisen Co., Ltd. is shifted to ocean-going arena, the group started demanding a multinational ship management team which will allow us to render the quality services to esteemed business clients of ours.

Singapore is a premier global hub port, connected to more than 600 ports in over 120 countries, and therefore one of the strongest maritime clusters in the world has been grown here. This beautiful port state with excellent business environment, attracts the best and brightest maritime experts acting in the battle front of shipping industry, and the availability of those personnel assets was the prime motivation engine for us to set up a new core of shipowning and shipmanagement function in this strategic location.

With our customers-oriented spirit, we aim to enhance the relationship with every customer around the world and to provide excellent services to them from Singapore. We continue to tackle accelerating safe vessel-operation with particular emphasis on ship-owning business being supported by own nautical/technical experts while securing the confidence of customers and community members. At the same time, we are in tune to protect the safety of the global environment through the safe and environment friendly navigation and equipment used in the modern vessels of ours with the latest design.

Our History

Kambara Kisen Singapore Pte Ltd, established in 2012 was incorporated as an independent shipowning arm of Tsuneishi Group and 3 bulk carriers were added to the owned fleet.
Later that year, we have obtained the MSI-AIS Entry Status by the Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore(MPA).

We have received our first new building “Majulah Singapura” (58BC) which was delivered from Tsuneishi Heavy Industries of Cebu in 2014. With the new vessel design and safe operation practise, Majulah Singapura” was awarded as Green Ship under the Green Ship Programme- one of the initiatives of the MPA for its environmentally-friendly specification.

With the increasing reputation and credibility of shipmanagement unit Union Marine Management Services Pte Ltd, volume entrusted by thirdparty owners have increased.
Thus a joint office was moved to HarbourFront March 2015.
