The ship's carpenter and shipyard owner Klaus Wilhelm tom Wörden from Graepel an der Oste became the captain ship owner with his last ship in 1911 , from which today's shipping company tom Wörden emerged.

Beginning with a three-masted gaff schooner (1911–1944)

Klaus Wilhelm tom Wörden (1875–1944) learned the trade of shipbuilder in Bremervörde and in 1903 bought the existing shipyard from Johann Steffens in Graepel an der Oste , which became the tom Wörden shipyard . He built ships until 1911 and began a new phase of life as a captain ship owner with the last newbuildings in 1911. In doing so, he laid the foundation stone for a shipping company that celebrated its centenary as a group of companies in 2011. Klaus Wilhelm tom Wörden began as a shipowner with the three-masted gaff schooner Wilhelm . The shipping area was the coastal voyage in the area of ​​the North Sea and the Baltic Sea , initially wood and general cargo were mainly transported. During the First World War he worked at the Imperial Shipyard in Kiel and in 1918, at the age of 43, he received his captain's license . The wooden three-masted gaff schooner was sold and replaced by a steel motor sailer (51 GRT), the Rundgattewer Gesche . The Gesche was powered by a 50 hp engine. In 1921 the almost twice as large sailing ship Gsine from Holland was bought, and in 1923 it received an auxiliary engine. The son Willi also got on board here as a helmsman . In 1927 the three-masted gaff schooner Ingeborg III (142 BRT) with a 125 HP diesel engine was bought. A gaff schooner Ingeborg (250 GRT) supplemented the fleet in 1930 and with the Ingeborg II three ships with the name Ingeborg for tom Wörden sailed from 1933. In 1940 the Schulte & Bruns shipyard was rebuilt by the motor freighter Klaus Wilhelm (250 GRT), which served as a supplier for the Navy.

New beginning and expansion (1945–1984)

The 1950 built Klaus Wilhelm

Like almost all other German shipping companies, the tom Wörden shipping company no longer owned a ship after the Second World War. In 1950, the shipping company began with the new Klaus Wilhelm building ; the shipyard was the Rickmers shipyard in Bremerhaven. Other larger ships were purchased and in 1979 the shipping company acquired the first container ship, the Navalis . Since then, container shipping has been expanded and the shipping company now operates global container shipping in addition to European general cargo shipping.

Fourth generation (1985-2011)

Since 1985, the fourth generation of captain Klaus tom Wörden has headed the family company, which has since developed into a group of companies. In addition to the shipping company Schiffahrtkontor tom Wörden, there are the companies Navalis Shipping, Nautic Service- und Treuhandgesellschaft and Manx Ocean Group Ltd. The headquarters of the group of companies is in Oldendorf (near Stade), further locations are Hamburg , Riga and Isle of Man . The company employs a total of around 560 people on land and at sea.

Timber and container shipping

In the Baltic fleet, 25 ships are employed in the logging industry. They are multi-purpose ships with carrying capacities from 4,000 to 9,300 dwt . They transport wood and pulp products for Scandinavian manufacturers from the Baltic Sea, mainly in ports in the North and Baltic Seas and in the Mediterranean.

In the container fleet, 7 ships operate between 800 and 1,200 20-foot container units (TEU).
