The company was founded 1 September 1968 by the chairman of the company, billionaire Dr. Yung-Fa Chang , and has expanded to include other shipping companies such as the Uniglory Marine Corp. (Taiwan), the Hatsu Marine Ltd. (UK), and the Italian shipping company Lloyd Triestino (orig. founded as " Österreichischer Lloyd " in 1835). Evergreen is also a partial owner of EVA Airways and Uniair . The company's activities include: shipping, construction of containers and ships, management of ports, and engineering and real estate development.

The majority of Evergreen's containers are unsurprisingly painted green with the word "Evergreen" placed on the sides in white letters. Uniglory containers are similarly painted and marked, but those containers are bright orange. Evergreen's refrigerated " Reefer " containers have a reverse color scheme (white containers with green lettering).
