In the 19th century, she already played an outstanding roll as yard owner in building punts and sailing vessels in Haren. In 1953, the brothers Stefan and Hermann Sibum carried out the turning away from shipbuilding to shipping business by purchasing their first coaster MV "Gerd". Up to now, shipping company`s fleet has constantly been adapted to up-to-date trade demands because of newbuildings or sale and purchase. Since the foundation of the shipping company, the vessels have been operated successfully. In this connection, the character of a family company has always been protected. A conscientious and personal operating of the vessels has always been of great value. That is how the shipping company purchased an adequate reputation in shipping and is today appreciated as a reliable and trustworthy partner. Since a new generation has taken over at the beginning of the 90`s, the shipping company is managed by Captain Bernd Sibum, who is supported by his wife Anne Fehren-Sibum at commercial settlements in business.
