    On January 1, 2018, the merchant shipbuilding business of Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Ltd. (MHI) made a new start with the establishment of Mitsubishi Shipbuilding Co., Ltd.

The start of the shipbuilding business dates back to 1884 when Yubin Kisen Mitsubishi Kaisha (Mitsubishi Mail Steamship Company) Nagasaki Shipyard & Machinery Works was launched. Throughout our more than 130-year history in the shipbuilding business, we have built various types of vessels coping with the changes brought about by the severe market conditions. At Mitsubishi Shipbuilding, we will continue to promote management innovation and technology development in the hope of contributing to the businesses of our customers and social progress.
