Hanjin Shipping has made great strides in its cape size business scale since it laid a cornerstone in the long-term and stable transportation of the nation’s strategic cargoes such as iron ore and coking/steaming coal with the creation of prestigious industrial partnership with POSCO and Korean Electric Power Corporation (KEPCO) in 1987.

On the back of the continuous build-up of long-term chartered fleet as well as contracts with the world’s leading steel mills and power houses, inclusive of the major charterers in Korea, Hanjin has now evolved into one of the market leaders in the area of the cape size business.

Currently, over ten cape size vessels ranging from 130K to 210K deadweight are dedicated to POSCO and KEPCO, and are also engaged in the transportation of iron ore and coal from the main exporting countries such as Australia, India, North and South Americas and Africa to the various ports of import in Europe and the Far East represented by Korea and China.

In line with the growing demand of domestic/overseas customers for superb ocean transportation service, Hanjin Shipping is making ceaseless efforts to deliver premier service to its customers by securing mid and long-term charted fleet under its control.

Hanjin’s profound experience and specialty in the area of cape business accumulated through its safe and stable operation of this size for many years will continue to serve as the backbone in Hanjin offering reliable services of superior quality and maintaining its position as a competitive shipping company.
