Our Story
Northern Shipyard Sdn. Bhd. [CO. NO. 200801031680 (833013-W)] embarked on its journey toward maritime excellence in 2012, and by 2015, this vision came to life with the launch of our cutting-edge facility in Bukit Malut, Langkawi. From the very beginning, our mission was clear: to redefine standards in vessel repair and maintenance, serving a diverse clientele that demands precision, quality, and reliability.
Our roots trace back to the legacy of Langkawi Ferry Services Sdn. Bhd. [CO NO 199601038351 (410704H)], our parent company, recognized as a leader in ferry services for over 25 years. The foundation of experience and commitment built by LFS became the cornerstone for NSSB, inspiring us to uphold the highest standards in every project we undertake.
As our reputation expanded, so did the scale and complexity of our projects. We earned recognition for significant accomplishments, including the refit and hull extension of 45-meter catamaran ferries and the construction of a 57-meter Catamaran RoRo, realized in collaboration with a key partner in Batam, Indonesia. Our commitment to excellence was further showcased when we were entrusted with building four Fast Patrol Craft for Suncraft International Pte Ltd and the Nigerian Navy.
Langkawi plays a central role in our journey. Situated on a tax-free island in the heart of Asia, our strategic location offers not only cost efficiencies but also seamless connectivity to global shipping routes. Here, clients receive not only exceptional service but also access to the natural beauty of a tropical paradise with luxury resort amenities.
Today, NSSB remains dedicated to advancing maritime standards. Collaborating with vessel designers worldwide, we bring to life a diverse range of designs, from agile RHIBs to large RoRo vessels. Every project we undertake reflects our unwavering dedication to quality, supported by skilled craftsmanship and a drive for innovation. At Northern Shipyard, we’re not just building vessels; we’re crafting a legacy of maritime excellence.
