Description

The Hong Kong Shippers' Council was established in 1967 and incorporated as a separate entity in June 1976. Its forerunner was the Freight Joint Committee formed by the Federation of Hong Kong Industries in 1961. The Hong Kong Shippers' Council evolved from this committee.

The aims and objectives for the establishment of the Council are to protect and promote the interests of Hong Kong exports and importers, traders and manufacturers in matters relating to the transportation of merchandise by sea, land and air. The Council has worked towards establishing a level playing field between shippers and service providers, such as the shipping lines and airfreight carriers.

The Council is an independent organisation of international status, with open membership. The Council represents Hong Kong shippers overseas and is a member of regional and international shippers' councils like the Global Shippers' Network and the Federation of ASEAN Shippers' Councils (FASC). The Council works together with other shippers' councils towards shaping the regulatory environment on issues relating to the shipping and transportation of goods on a local, regional and global level.
