A.P. Møller

Møller built the company that grew into one of the world's largest container carriers, so many brands' imports still travel under his family's name. He founded Steamship Company Svendborg in 1904 and Dampskibsselskabet af 1912, expanding into liner services between continents. His son Mærsk Mc-Kinney Møller later moved the group into container shipping. When a brand books ocean freight, compares carrier alliances, or tracks a container on a Maersk vessel, it is dealing with the business he started more than a century ago.
