According to the Zhitong Finance App, China Merchants Shipping (601872.SH) announced that on September 25, 2025, the company received an 82,000 DWT Kamsa dry bulk carrier “Mingfu” in Yizheng, Yangzhou through its wholly-owned single-ship company. The ship is the first of the four new energy-saving and environmentally-friendly Kamsa dry bulk carriers ordered by the company in 2023. It uses a next-generation energy-saving and environmentally-friendly design and is equipped with energy-saving equipment such as shaft-belt generators. The energy efficiency and energy efficiency and environmental protection indicators are far superior to the company's existing six 76,000 DWT Panamanian bulk carriers.

The “Mingfu” ship series has flexible multi-cargo transportation capacity. The professional ability to transport food is a prominent feature of this series of ships. The successive delivery and operation of the “Mingfu” ship series will effectively expand the size of the company's own Panamanian fleet, strengthen the carrying capacity of major cargo such as grain, and further enhance customer service capabilities. Against the backdrop of the increasing aging of the global dry bulk carrier fleet, the addition of this series of ships and other newly built ships will effectively improve the ship structure and age structure of the company's dry bulk carrier fleet, enhance the market competitiveness of the company's dry bulk carrier sector, and increase the company's sustainable profitability.
