Samuel Enderby & Sons was a whaling and sealing company based in London, England, founded circa 1775 by Samuel Enderby (1717–1797). The company was significant in the history of whaling in the United Kingdom, not least for encouraging their captains to combine exploration with their business activities, and sponsored several of the earliest expeditions to the subantarctic, Southern Ocean and Antarctica itself.

  • Samuel Enderby & Sons byla velrybářská a tuleňářská firma, sídlící v Londýně. Byla založena kolem roku 1775 (1717 – 1797). Společnost vysílala výpravy nejen loveckého charakteru, ale také s objevitelskými ambicemi. Na jejich náklady odpluly z Evropy jedny z prvních expedic do antarktické a subantarktické oblasti. (cs)
  • Samuel Enderby & Sons war eine Mitte des 18. Jahrhunderts in London gegründete Firma für Walfang und Robbenjagd, die sich später auch mit Expeditionen in die Gewässer der Antarktis und des Pazifischen Ozeans einen Namen machte. Das Familienunternehmen war über rund 100 Jahre ein marktbestimmender Faktor im Walfang und konnte u. a. die Entdeckung der Auckland Islands durch Abraham Bristow für sich verbuchen. Die Geschichte des Familienunternehmens reichte über fünf Generationen bis in das 17. Jahrhundert zurück. (de)
  • Samuel Enderby & Sons (en español, Samuel Enderby y hermanos) fue una compañía fundada alrededor de 1775 por Samuel Enderby (1717-97), con sede en Londres, Inglaterra, que se dedicó a la caza de ballenas y a la caza de focas.​ La compañía alentó a sus capitanes para que combinasen la actividad comercial con la exploración, y fue patrocinadora de alguna de las primeras expediciones a las regiones subantárticas, tanto en el océano Austral como en la Antártida misma. En esos viajes, sus barcos y capitanes descubrieron muchas tierras hasta el momento desconocidas, como las islas Auckland (1806), la Tierra de Enderby (1831), las islas Biscoe (1832), la Tierra de Graham (1832) o las islas Balleny (1839).
