With a history spanning more than a century, KC Maritime takes pride in its journey and success so far. Starting from a small textile business in Madras, (now Chennai) India launched by Shri Kishinchand Chellaram, founder of the Kishinchand Chellaram Group, the Group expanded into over 50 branches across 4 continents in the following decades entering the dry bulk shipping business in 1980 under the leadership of Shri.
