Jinhui Shipping

Hong Kong-based and Bermuda-registered shipowner and operator Jinhui Shipping and Transportation Limited has continued its fleet renewal and asset optimization strategy by selling another ageing supramax bulk carrier, further underlining its long-term focus on efficiency, liquidity, and modernization within the dry bulk sector.Oslo-listed shipowner and operator Jinhui Shipping and Transportation Limited announced the sale of its 2012-built supramax bulk carrier MV Jin Mao, with a deadweight of 56,000 DWT, for around $13 million to Chinese shipowner and operator New United Marine Co. Ltd. The supramax bulk carrier MV Jin Mao was constructed at Jiangsu Hantong Ship Heavy Industry and will be handed over free of charter upon delivery, according to a statement from Jinhui Shipping and Transportation Limited. The transaction forms part of the company’s disciplined capital recycling policy and commitment to gradually replace older, less efficient tonnage with modern, eco-design ships better suited to current environmental and operational requirements.Jinhui Shipping and Transportation Limited purchased the supramax bulk carrier MV Jin Mao in 2022 from South Korea-based diversified shipowner and operator Kmarin Group for approximately $16.5 million, when the ship was known as MV Pacific Crown. As of the end of September, the supramax bulk carrier MV Jin Mao carried an unaudited net book value of about $13.3 million, implying that the sale will result in a small accounting loss of roughly $0.2 million. The proceeds from the disposal will be used primarily to reduce short-term borrowings, settle outstanding payables, and strengthen cash reserves. The sale is expected to improve the group’s balance sheet position and reduce interest expenses, allowing Jinhui Shipping and Transportation Limited to maintain a more flexible financial structure in anticipation of future investment opportunities.Founded in the 1980s, Jinhui Shipping and Transportation Limited has grown into one of Hong Kong’s most established publicly listed shipowning groups, with over three decades of experience in dry bulk operations. The company is primarily engaged in the ownership and chartering of dry bulk ships, transporting key commodities such as iron ore, coal, grain, and minor bulks across global trade routes. Headquartered in Hong Kong and incorporated in Bermuda, Jinhui Shipping and Transportation Limited is dual-listed on the Oslo Stock Exchange and the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, providing it with a strong international shareholder base and access to multiple capital markets.Over the past several years, Jinhui Shipping and Transportation Limited has been undergoing a strategic fleet renewal program designed to enhance operating efficiency, lower average fleet age, and comply with tightening IMO decarbonization and environmental regulations. This long-term approach has seen the shipowner divest older supramax bulk carriers and replace them with modern eco-ships featuring advanced hull designs and optimized fuel consumption. Earlier this year, Hong Kong-based and Bermuda-registered shipowner and operator Jinhui Shipping and Transportation Limited reinforced its commitment to modernization by investing approximately $99 million in three ultramax bulk carrier newbuildings at Jiangmen Nanyang Ship Engineering, scheduled for delivery in 2026 and 2027. The move marked a continuation of the company’s focus on younger, more efficient ships with lower carbon footprints, aligning with global sustainability goals and ensuring stronger charter market competitiveness.Jinhui Shipping and Transportation Limited currently operates a mixed fleet of 29 ships, consisting of 21 owned ships and eight chartered-in ships, representing an aggregate carrying capacity of approximately 2.2 million DWT. Among these, two owned ships are under sale and leaseback arrangements, while one vessel is classified as held for sale. The fleet includes mainly supramax and ultramax bulk carriers, with a balanced chartering mix between spot exposure and period employment to optimize returns in different freight environments. The company’s management maintains a conservative financial philosophy, emphasizing low leverage, strong liquidity, and proactive risk management — a strategy that has helped Jinhui Shipping and Transportation Limited remain profitable even during volatile market cycles.Led by a seasoned management team with extensive maritime and financial expertise, Jinhui Shipping and Transportation Limited continues to prioritize operational excellence, cost discipline, and sustainability. The shipowner’s decision to dispose of the supramax bulk carrier MV Jin Mao underscores its proactive approach to maintaining a modern, compliant, and environmentally responsible fleet capable of adapting to evolving global trade patterns. With a strong liquidity position and an ongoing investment in next-generation tonnage, Hong Kong-based and Bermuda-registered shipowner and operator Jinhui Shipping and Transportation Limited stands well-positioned to capitalize on future market opportunities while preserving its reputation as a prudent, quality-driven player in the international dry bulk shipping arena. 30-October-2025

 

 

Hong Kong-based and Bermuda-registered shipowner and operator Jinhui Shipping and Transportation Limited has returned to the newbuilding market with a significant order valued at around $99 million for three ultramax bulk carriers. The Oslo- and Hong Kong-listed shipowner and operator Jinhui Shipping and Transportation Limited confirmed that it has entered into contracts with Jiangmen Nanyang Ship Engineering for the construction of three 64K DWT ultramax bulk carriers, which are scheduled for delivery in Q1 2028. This major order represents a continuation of Jinhui Shipping and Transportation Limited’s long-term strategy to modernize its fleet with technologically advanced and fuel-efficient bulk carriers built to meet the latest international environmental regulations and market demands. The renewed investment follows a year of strategic disposals in 2025 by Jinhui Shipping and Transportation Limited, when the shipowner and operator sold off a series of older supramax bulk carriers in order to streamline its operations and focus on modernizing its core fleet. Today, Jinhui Shipping and Transportation Limited controls a fleet of 29 ships across multiple segments, including capesize, panamax, ultramax, and supramax bulk carriers, with 20 of those assets being fully owned. By pursuing this newbuilding program, Jinhui Shipping and Transportation Limited is aiming to replace its aging ships with larger and more efficient bulk carriers that will provide stronger commercial returns while also enhancing the group’s environmental profile.In a stock exchange filing, Hong Kong-based and Bermuda-registered shipowner and operator Jinhui Shipping and Transportation Limited explained that the decision to pursue newbuildings is driven by the lack of suitable secondhand opportunities. “At present, no high-quality young secondhand bulk carriers offering a balanced combination of suitable specifications, favorable delivery timelines, and reasonable pricing can be identified,” the shipowner and operator emphasized, adding that its new ultramax bulk carriers will feature modern eco-designs that are expected to lower fuel consumption, increase cargo intake efficiency, and strengthen compliance with the International Maritime Organization’s decarbonization framework. This reinforces Jinhui Shipping and Transportation Limited’s broader ambition to align with sustainability targets while securing a competitive advantage in global shipping markets. The order at Jiangmen Nanyang Ship Engineering follows Jinhui Shipping and Transportation Limited’s earlier contract at Jiangsu Hantong Ship Heavy Industry for two 63K DWT ultramax bulk carriers worth approximately $68 million, which are due for delivery in December 2026 and November 2027. By staggering its deliveries, Jinhui Shipping and Transportation Limited is not only ensuring a steady pipeline of new, fuel-efficient bulk carriers but also protecting itself against overexposure to single market cycles, thereby maintaining financial flexibility and operational balance. Founded in 1987, Jinhui Shipping and Transportation Limited has established itself as one of the most enduring shipping enterprises with Asian roots. Over nearly four decades, the shipowner and operator has weathered numerous shipping cycles, adjusting its strategy from aggressive fleet expansion in strong markets to conservative capital preservation during downturns. Headquartered in Hong Kong but registered in Bermuda, Jinhui Shipping and Transportation Limited has maintained a strong presence in both Asian and European financial markets, with dual listings in Oslo and Hong Kong providing access to international capital. This dual listing has historically enabled the group to raise funds for fleet acquisitions and modernization while enhancing transparency and credibility with global investors. Jinhui Shipping and Transportation Limited has earned a reputation for disciplined fleet management, focusing on bulk carriers that serve major global trades such as coal, iron ore, and grain shipments between Asia, the Americas, and Europe. The firm’s strategic focus on ultramax and supramax bulk carriers reflects its belief in the versatility and wide employability of these ship types, which can access a broader range of ports and trades compared to larger capesize bulk carriers. By diversifying its fleet across multiple size categories, Jinhui Shipping and Transportation Limited balances exposure between long-haul iron ore and coal shipments and shorter regional trades, providing it with flexibility in both strong and weak market conditions. Apart from commercial operations, Jinhui Shipping and Transportation Limited has placed increasing emphasis on sustainability and environmental stewardship. The shipowner and operator has begun implementing vessel retrofits, including energy-saving devices and ballast water treatment systems, while also exploring alternative fuels and digital technologies to improve voyage performance. These steps are consistent with its long-term strategy to remain compliant with evolving regulations such as the Energy Efficiency Existing Ship Index (EEXI) and the Carbon Intensity Indicator (CII). By proactively investing in both newbuildings and technological upgrades, Jinhui Shipping and Transportation Limited demonstrates a strong commitment to aligning its business model with future regulatory frameworks and charterer expectations. Financially, Jinhui Shipping and Transportation Limited has built resilience through a conservative capital structure. The firm has historically managed to generate solid cash flows even in challenging markets by maintaining low leverage and prioritizing liquidity. This approach, combined with selective asset sales and newbuilding investments, allows Jinhui Shipping and Transportation Limited to capture market upswings without exposing itself to excessive financial risk. Its prudent financial management and dual stock listings have long provided reassurance to investors who value stability in the cyclical shipping industry. The combination of the three newly contracted ultramax bulk carriers at Jiangmen Nanyang Ship Engineering and the two ultramax bulk carriers under construction at Jiangsu Hantong Ship Heavy Industry represents a carefully calibrated fleet renewal program. By Q1 2028, Jinhui Shipping and Transportation Limited will have added five modern, fuel-efficient ultramax bulk carriers to its operations. This program underscores its forward-looking approach to fleet management and positions the group to capture upside potential from tightening tonnage supply and robust commodity demand. Taken together, these initiatives showcase Jinhui Shipping and Transportation Limited’s enduring vision: to maintain a younger, more environmentally friendly, and more commercially competitive fleet, while safeguarding shareholder value and reinforcing its standing as a major participant in the global dry bulk shipping industry. 3-October-2025

 

Hong Kong-based and Bermuda-registered shipowner and operator Jinhui Shipping and Transportation Limited has completed the sale of another supramax bulk carrier at a book loss, continuing its strategy of divesting older tonnage from its fleet portfolio. The Oslo- and Hong Kong-listed shipowner and operator Jinhui Shipping and Transportation Limited announced that it has sold the 2008 built supramax bulk carrier 58K DWT MV Jin Rong for approximately \$12 million. The supramax bulk carrier MV Jin Rong is scheduled to be delivered in October 2025 to the buyer, Hong Kong-registered shipowner and operator LiuLiu Shun Shipping. Jinhui Shipping and Transportation Limited, established in 1987, is one of the best-known names in the dry bulk shipping sector with decades of experience in owning and operating bulk carriers across global trade routes. Headquartered in Hong Kong, Jinhui Shipping and Transportation Limited also maintains a strong presence in Norway through its Oslo listing, making it a rare example of a shipping group with dual listings in both Europe and Asia. The company primarily focuses on the supramax and handymax segments, providing services to leading charterers and commodity houses worldwide. Over the years, Jinhui Shipping and Transportation Limited has built a reputation for prudent fleet management, balancing expansion with timely divestments of older assets to optimize operational efficiency and maintain competitiveness in the cyclical bulk shipping markets. Despite facing volatility in freight rates and asset values, the company has consistently adapted its strategy to market conditions, including chartering flexibility and selective ship acquisitions and disposals. The latest disposal of the supramax bulk carrier MV Jin Rong reflects Jinhui Shipping and Transportation Limited’s ongoing fleet renewal strategy, aimed at aligning with modern efficiency standards and tightening global regulatory frameworks on emissions. Jinhui Shipping and Transportation Limited has gradually been selling older tonnage while positioning itself to benefit from younger, fuel-efficient bulk carriers better suited for a decarbonising industry. As a publicly traded entity listed both on the Oslo Stock Exchange and the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, Jinhui Shipping and Transportation Limited maintains transparency in its operations and financial disclosures. This dual-market access has strengthened its reputation with both Asian and European investors, allowing it to raise capital and maintain flexibility in an increasingly competitive sector. 5-September-2025
