We are 270 times around the world
Today the World Maritime Day is celebrated all over the world. The International Maritime Organisation (IMO) has for 2016 chosen the theme; "Shipping: indispensable to the world". We could not agree more. Stena´s fleet alone travels 270 times around the world. Every year.
Stena Line with its extensive route network in Northern Europe carries around 30 000 kilometers of trucks every year, equal to more than 3 times the distance between London and Shanghai, supplying grocery stores and supermarkets with fresh food and flowers, manufacturing companies with processing materials and construction sites with building materials.
As an example, in Sweden the Christmas celebrations are partly dependent on shipping as 1,2 million Christmas trees every year is shipped to Sweden on Stena Lines vessels from Denmark
Did you know that, according to United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD), 80 percent of global trade by volume is carried at sea? That means that without shipping global trade would probably not be possible.
Stena was founded 1939 and has grown to be a truly global company. Please join our journey and get the feeling for who WE ARE.
