ZIM China Co., Ltd. was established in 1998 and is a wholly-owned subsidiary of ZIM China Co., Ltd. The company has developed a comprehensive service network system with 30 branches and representative offices across the country.

Origin of the name

The name "ZIM" was proposed by David Remez, Israel's first Minister of Transportation, based on a passage in the Old Testament (Numbers 24:24). In the original Hebrew, "Zim" means "big ship". ZIM Shipping uses this as a reference to express its ambition to build a world-class fleet.
