| Founded in 1919, Kawasaki Kisen
Kaisha, Ltd. ("K" LINE®) takes pride in its 81-year-long history. The Company
started from scratch or practically nothing to reconstruct almost all of its fleet
destroyed and/or lost during World War II. |
|
Tiding over a large and varied number of difficulties, "K" LINE has been
challenging and attaining a good deal of accomplishments thanks to our "K"
LINE Spirit. It prevailed in the past, continues as strong as ever at present and
will endure perpetually as long as the Company's history goes on. |
|
During its long history, all management and employees at the Company have been striving to
grow the Company into one of the world's major shipping lines, always with a
forward-looking approach to our shareholders, customers and all other business associates. |
|
The best business style of our choice is being created with an in-depth foresight into
what is expected to come and what must be done. We are particularly proud that our global
transportation services are always customer-oriented and highly professional in the real
sense of the word, ranging from container business to specialized bulk carrier business to
energy transport business. |
|
On a "K" LINE-Group basis, these services are being streamlined and expanded to
include coastal shipping, terminal/warehousing operations and domestic truck
transportation as well, based on the overall concept of a logistics service network. |
|
Living and advancing through the last year of the 20th century, we at "K" LINE
and its Group are committed to being environment-friendly anytime and anywhere on the
globe. |
