A new player has officially entered the global shipping stage.
Shunyu Shipping Co., Ltd., jointly established by Xiamen Xiangyu Co., Ltd. and Shunda Mining https://lnkd.in/gPZeBjgk, has launched operations with a bold vision: to create an integrated, two-way logistics corridor between China and West Africa—and to do it with a self-owned fleet.
This marks more than just the start of a new shipping company. It’s a signal of ambition.
Backed by Xiangyu’s expertise in global commodity logistics and Shunda’s mining base in Guinea, Shunyu Shipping is focusing on Capesize bulk transport from West Africa to China and project cargo exports from China to Africa.
The company recently completed its first successful voyage to Guinea, carrying 21,000 m³ of Chinese equipment—validating the commercial viability of its West Africa-China route.
As part of a broader strategy, Shunyu will gradually build a self-owned fleet, drawing on Xiangyu's existing shipping capabilities (currently 6 vessels including bulk and deck cargo ships), while deepening cooperation with key partners such as COSCO Shipping Bulk in COAs, shipbuilding, and digital supply chain integration.
This is not just fleet expansion—it’s fleet strategy, supply chain control, and long-term positioning for global trade.
In a time of geopolitical shifts and supply chain realignments, Shunyu Shipping represents a new model for combining state-linked industrial capacity, private resource control, and maritime ambition.
