Good to know

ZIM, in a few facts

  • Founded in 1945 to carry immigrants to the new state; today a NYSE-listed niche carrier rather than a size-race player.
  • Charters most of its fleet rather than owning it, the asset-light strategy that made its pandemic profits famous.
  • Full coverage of its fleet is in build on this site.
