The Fleets
Rotterdam Lloyd
/ Stoomboot Reederij "Rotterdamsche Lloyd"
 The company started life in 1839 as Willem Ruys with
sailing ships to trade mostly to the Dutch East Indies and the Far
East. Some
voyages to South America were also made. In 1870 a steamer service
was instituted to carry iron ore between Spain, the Mediterranean and
Holland
and a passenger / mail service to Batavia (Jakarta) commenced in 1872.
The Stoomboot Reederij "Rotterdamsche Lloyd" (Rotterdam Lloyd) was
formed in 1875. In 1881 the name was changed to Stoomvaart
Maatschappij Rotterdamsche Lloyd (Rotterdam Steam Navigation
Co) and in 1883 the company was re-formed as N.V. Rotterdamsche
Lloyd. A subsidiary company was Stoomvaart
Maatschappij 'Triton' (1899) to operate the company's tramp
ship trade. Partnership operations were formed in 1902 with other companies
to operate the Java
- China - Japan Line, in 1906 to operate the Java - Bengalen Line and
in 1908 the Java - Australia Line. In 1908 Rotterdam Lloyd also set
up the Stoomvaart Maatschappij "Rotterdam" as a tramp
ship company. A new Java - Pacific Line was founded in partnership
in 1915. A consortium
of Dutch shipowners formed Vereenigde Nederlandsche Scheepvaarts
Maatschappij (United Netherlands Navigation Co) in
1920 to divide the routes between owners and Rotterdam Lloyd were appointed
managers of the Holland - Australia
Line and three ships allocated to this service. After the war, the
company was granted the honour of Koninklijke (Royal) to add to it's
title and
became Koninklijke Rotterdamsche Lloyd. In 1948 Rotterdam
Lloyd and Nederland
S.S. Co. formed the Nedlloyd Line to operate services from the
Gulf of Mexico to the Persian Gulf, India and Pakistan. With the independence
of Indonesia
in 1949 trade with this area gradually declined and the later advent
of popular air travel, spelt the end of passenger ships. In 1970 Rotterdam
Lloyd merged with other companies to form Koninklijke Nedlloyd N.V.
and disappeared as a
separate entity.
