Grönqvist Shipping Estonia was founded in Estonia 1999, but its history goes back to 1947 in Finland. That year skipper Runar Grönqvist built his first vessel, the galeas Margaretha, and through hard work as ship-owner, skipper and, if needed, a docker or carpenter, the basis for a future shipping company was built up.

The tradition has been continued by his son Leif Grönqvist and grandson Christian Grönqvist. Nowadays the Grönqvist family operates six vessels and captain Christian Grönqvist has moved from the bridge to the owner's office of the family owned Prima Shipping Group (www.primashipping.fi).

The ships of Prima Shipping Group often call at Estonian ports, carrying building materials, timber agriculture products and other cargoes. To support these shipping activities, and keeping in mind the growing potential of Estonia, the independent maritime agency Grönqvist Shipping Estonia was founded in 1999.
