ABOUT: Hanjin Shipping Co., Ltd. was a South Korean integrated logistics and container transport company. Prior to its financial demise, Hanjin Shipping was South Korea’s largest container line and one of the world’s top ten container carriers in terms of capacity.

Hanjin started at the end of World War II, in November 1945. Early on, its biggest customer was the U.S. Army, providing the transportation of material to both Korea and Vietnam. The company signed a major contract with the US 8th Army in November 1956, and another contract in March 1966, with all of the U.S. armed forces in Vietnam, including the Army, Navy, and Air Force. In November 1969, Hanjin made its entry into the containerized shipping business signing a deal with Sea-Land Service, Inc. In September 1970, the company opened its first container yard at the port of Busan.

During the 70s and 80s Hanjin pushed growth in the Middle east area. In March 1990, Hanjin branched out into trucking and warehousing with the purchase of Korea Freight Transport Company. In June 1992, Hanjin Express was introduced to deliver small packages and provide courier service. The company started to load and unload cargo at the ports of Long Beach and Seattle with the joint venture Total Terminals International LLC., in August 1992.

In January 1993, they initiated container rail service between Pusan and Uiang. In May 1995, Hanjin hauled grain to North Korea.

In 1997, DSR Senator(German) was in financial difficulties, after which the South Korean shipping company Hanjin Shipping, already holding the majority share (80%) of the Senator Line took over. In the year 2000 the name changes to Senator Lines

Hanjin-Senator was achieved by combining the container fleets of Hanjin Shipping and Senator Lines, making Hanjin-Senator the eighth largest container shipping company in the world. Hanjin was Senator’s majority shareholder; the two companies were run separately but combined their fleet numbers for statistical purposes.

The German subsidiary carrier Senator Lines announced on February 4, 2009, that they would be ceasing operations due to the economic downturn

On August 31, 2016, Hanjin Shipping filed for bankruptcy. Hanjin Shipping’s creditors withdrew their support after deeming a funding plan by parent company Hanjin inadequate.
