Hamburg Südamerikanische Dampfschifffahrts-Gesellschaft A/S & Co KG, widely known as Hamburg Süd, was a German container shipping company. Founded in 1871, Hamburg Süd was among the market leaders in the North–South trade. It also served all significant East–West trade lanes.
The shipping entity was formerly part of the Oetker Group, but was sold to A.P. Moller–Maersk Group's shipping division Maersk Line in 2017.
