About us

The UK Chamber of Shipping’s mission is to champion and protect the UK shipping industry on behalf of its members. We are passionate about UK shipping and work to champion its future success and London’s status as the premier global maritime centre.

We work closely with Government, Parliament, policy makers and other parties to:

  • gain recognition of shipping’s contribution to the UK economy and employment 
  • make clear the impact of upcoming and existing legislation on the future of shipping in the UK
  • bring them together to work with the UK shipping industry and the related national, European and international maritime organisations.
