Incorporated in 2005 and headquartered in Shanghai, China, the company, formerly known as China COSCO Holdings Company Limited until its name change in November 2016, functions as a subsidiary of China COSCO SHIPPING Corporation Limited and ranks among the world's largest container shipping providers with a fleet of approximately 557 vessels boasting a total capacity of 3.40 million TEUs as of June 30, 2025. It delivers core products and services including maritime container transportation across major trade routes in the United States, Europe, Asia Pacific, Mainland China, and other international markets; container terminal management and operations at global facilities with a collective annual design capacity exceeding 133 million TEUs across 238 berths; logistics solutions encompassing freight forwarding, project logistics, supply chain management, and digital supply chain platforms like SynCon Hub; as well as container leasing and ancillary port services. The company maintains extensive geographic operations, serving over 650 ports in 146 countries and regions through more than 307 international container shipping lines, while targeting shippers, freight forwarders, and global trade participants in key segments such as industrials, marine shipping, and cargo transportation infrastructure. Recent developments include a June 2025 partnership and leasing agreement with X-Press Feeders Group to enhance feeder services across Asia, the Middle East, Mediterranean, North Europe, and Latin America through co-operation and newbuild vessel chartering; completion of a roughly US$110 million acquisition by COSCO Shipping Ports in October 2025 of a 12.5% stake in Thai Laem Chabang Terminal (Thailand's largest port) and a 30% stake in related operations to expand Southeast Asian logistics and terminal services; strategic equity investments in 2024 such as increased shareholding in COSCO SHIPPING Logistics Supply Chain to 19%, participation in Midea Group's H-share IPO, and stakes in Yantian Port and SAIC Anji Logistics; and extension of Ocean Alliance cooperation until 2032 with launches of new products like DAY8 and DAY9 amid stable market operations.
