Hampton Yachts was initially established in Taiwan in 1965. The company's founder, C.Y. Chen, set his eyes on the ever-evolving field of boat and yacht manufacturing and was driven by a singular vision: to create vessels that can meet and exceed the standards of the international market. Chen's relentless pursuit of perfection resulted in the production of high-quality yachts that seamlessly combined the aesthetics of luxurious designs with the dependability of hardy architectures.
In 1992, Hampton Yachts set sail towards the United States, establishing an office in Seattle, Washington. Hampton's expansion into the western world marked a significant milestone for the company. The opening of a dedicated office in the US facilitated direct contact with consumers, dealers, and affiliates, consequently fostering stronger relationships and deeper understanding of the US market.
As of today, the company's manufacturing facility now remains situated in Shanghai, China. The sprawling 568,000 square feet manufacturing facility is a testament to Hampton Yacht’s evolution over the years. It leverages advanced technological processes and houses an extensive team of skilled workers and engineers. With decades of experience under their belt, Hampton Yachts continues to impress aficionados and novices alike with its immaculately crafted yachts that embody elegance, performance, and innovation.
