The major company in the short-sea passenger and freight business
in 2020 is the Swedish Stena Line, who operate services to Europe,
Scandinavia and Ireland from United Kingdom ports. The company was
founded in 1962 by Sten A. Olsson in Gothenburg, Sweden, and was
one of the first ferry operators in Europe to introduce a
computer-based reservation system. In the 1980s, Stena took over
three other ferry companies and their ships. Various other
acquisitions followed, including the Harwich to Hook of Holland
route The company doubled in size in 1990 following its takeover of
Sealink British Ferries and Sea Containers. The company became
Sealink Stena Line, then Stena Sealink Line, and finally Stena
Line. With a wealth of rare and previously unpublished images, Ian
Collard celebrates this famous company.
