About Samship
Vessel supply in Curaçao since 1979, alongside a developing distribution portfolio for the island.
“The same sourcing and logistics that keep ships moving now bring selected brands and supplies to Curaçao.”
Samship's ship-supply heritage dates to 1979, when Raymond Samandar & Co. Shipchandling N.V. began serving Curaçao's maritime industry.
In 2024, that legacy entered its next generation through Samship B.V., established as part of the family's succession plan to carry the business forward. Today, vessel supply continues under the same family, alongside a developing distribution portfolio for local retailers, hospitality and industry.
