SHELL COMPANY

FOUNDER; Marcus Samuel

FOUNDED; April, 1907 in London (112 years )

In 1833, Marcus Samuel decided to expand his London business. He already


sold antiques but decided to try selling oriental seashells as well, capitalising on their
popularity in the interior design industry at that time. The demand was so great that
he began importing the shells from the Far East, laying the foundations for an import-
export business that would ultimately become one of the world’s leading energy
companies.

When Marcus Samuel senior died in 1870 he passed the business on to his
two sons, Marcus junior and Samuel, who began to expand it. In the 1880s they
became particularly interested in the oil exporting business but shipping still posed a
problem as oil was carried in barrels which could leak and took up a lot of space. To
solve the problem, they commissioned a fleet of steamers to carry oil in bulk,
including the Murex which, in 1892, became the first oil tanker to pass through the
Suez Canal.

Shell is British Dutch oil and Gas Company headquartered in the Netherlands
and incorporated in the United Kingdom. It is one of the six oil and gas super major
