The shipping company Wallenius SOL changed its name to Wallenius Link on 12 November. The name change follows Wallenius Lines’ acquisition of SOL Group’s shareholding in April 2026.
“The new name, Wallenius Link, reflects something at the heart of our business and the role we play. We’ve always believed in creating links between companies, capabilities and people. Because no industry moves on its own. A producer depends on reaching its markets. A factory on materials arriving when they are needed. A society on infrastructure that works, every day. And behind all that are the links that enable goods to move and businesses to grow.”
Erik Nøklebye, Chairman of Wallenius Link.
The change of name will not affect operations, strategic direction or offering. Wallenius Link will remain under the leadership of the same management team and organization.
“We will continue to put our customers and partnerships across the value chain at the centre of our business. Creating the links that support critical industrial infrastructure in Northern Europe is part of our legacy, and it will remain central to our future.”
Elvir Dzanic, CEO, Wallenius Link.
The new brand identity will be introduced gradually across the business, in line with operational schedules and local circumstances. This includes, for example, the rebranding of vessels in connection with planned maintenance. As a result, the existing and new identities will coexist for some time.
