Orient Marine was established in 1988, when we were appointed by the Ship and Marine Project Division of Mitsui & Co., Ltd., to undertake its ship maintenance, management and chartering operations with the goal of providing more effective and specialized services to the shipping industry. The scope of our business activities was expanded when we took over its marine equipment business in June of the following year, and again in October 1991 when we took over its sales and purchase activities of secondhand ships.

Orient Marine has been delivering services of great value to clients and to society as a whole under the banner of our mission, vision and values (MVV) statement.
The company's MVV forms the axis around which Orient Marine has integrated its shipbuilding supervision, chartering, secondhand ship sales & purchase business and ship machinery & equipment sales to become a total shipping business solution provider, and we have gained a reputation for reliability through more than several hundred deals, involving about 100 domestic and international clients. Our global network in close tie with Mitsui & Co., Ltd., allows us to provide our own view of future market trends and noteworthy updated market information. Also our ship management division, a business we have been perfecting since our foundation, delivers complete client satisfaction as a specialist in marine engineering with real credentials and expertise, one that gives full play to its technical consulting and engineering capabilities.

With competition becoming increasingly intense, Orient Marine is expanding its bases in Europe and Asia and will continue to create new markets and develop new business models in order to lead the industry as a group that is capable of delivering new values consistently. We will strive to maintain our position as a company that is trusted both by clients and society, mindful of the need to fulfill our responsibilities for transparency and accountability.
