London & Overseas Freighters Ltd. (LOF) was an ocean-going merchant shipping company that for most of its history was based in the United Kingdom.
In 1920 Manuel Kulukundis from the Aegean island of Kasos[ and his cousin Minas Rethymnis founded a shipbroking business in London, England. In 1934 Rethymnis & Kulukundis Ltd. (R&K) branched into shipowning, establishing a nominally separate company to own each ship. From 1934 they managed the ships under the name of Counties Ship Management Ltd (CSM).

In the Second World War from 1940 onwards CSM was controlled by the Ministry of War Transport.[2][4] CSM lost several ships in the war and others were damaged. In about 1946 CSM companies began replacing its losses by buying seven Liberty ships from the UK Government.
In 1948–49 ten ships from CSM companies were transferred to found a new R&K company, London & Overseas Freighters Ltd. However, in 1950 the CSM fleet was radically expanded with 34 Canadian "Fort and Park" ships.
