history

1868

Heinrich Ferdinand Schuldt, born on October 17, 1840 in Hamburg, founded a "ship freighting, clarification, commission and forwarding business" on January 5, 1868 in Flensburg, from which the nationwide leading freight forwarding company developed over the next few decades . H. Schuldt started his career as a shipowner in 1875 with a stake in the Bramsegelschoner Minna. Further early milestones: Moving into the first own office building in 1881 and ordering the first steamship (approx. 1,200 tons) in the following year. In 1896 the Flensburger Dampfercompanie AG and the insurance agency Herm were founded. Owed.

1900

At the turn of the century before last, the Schuldt fleet consisted of 23 ships with a total carrying capacity of approx. 55,000 tonnes engaged in global tramping. When the freight slump set in in 1905, Ozean-Dampfer AG was launched, and with it - for almost a century - the H. Schuldt company. With a heavily decimated fleet, after the First World War, combined transport with approx. 30 passenger seats became a new focus for two decades.

After the port of Flensburg lost its importance, the company headquarters were relocated to Hamburg in 1933 and liner services were set up in the Mediterranean region. In 1937, the "Fruchtreederei Harald Schuldt & Co." was founded. After the Second World War and the loss of all eleven ships, the rebuilding begins with a bus route Hamburg - Baltic Sea resorts and a coaster. Liner services soon followed to the Levant, then to Cuba, Mexico and the American east coast. The refrigerated drive was continued until 1984.

With the successful cooperation with issuing houses specializing in ship financing, H. Schuldt created a fleet of eight modern container ships in sizes between 1,000 and 3,500 TEU by the mid-1990s. In 1992 the company moved into its new domicile at Brooktor 11 in Hamburg's free port.

KG , was sold to the Norddeutsche Reederei-Beteiligungsgesellschaft and both companies were merged as of June 30, 2002 as Norddeutsche Reederei H. Schuldt GmbH & Co. KG.
