==History==
The company was founded in 1961 when Dutch entrepreneur Mr. Remeeus founded Norfolk Lijn N.V. The first appearance of the company in the ferry business was made possible when the roll-on/roll-off vessel ''Duke of Holland'' was acquired in 1969. Mr. Remeeus sold Norfolk Lijn N.V. to Unilever in 1973 and the company was renamed Norfolk Line in 1974.
The Company operated out of Great Yarmouth With "Duke of Holland and Duke of Norfolk".
The Maersk Company Ltd, subsidiary of A.P. Møller acquired Norfolk Line in 1985.
The nineties started with the merger of Norfolk Line with rail transport specialist Skandi in 1995 introducing rail freight services to the company, followed by 4 new vessels that were added to the Norfolk Line fleet (1996) and the opening of a container route between Rotterdam (Holland) to Waterford (Ireland) in 1997. The year after that the company was renamed Norfolkline and the refrigerated transport business was launched in Belfast. A second refrigerated transport location was launched in 1999 in Larkhall.
In the new millennium, the ferry division expanded with the start of a ferry route from Dover (UK) to Dunkirk (France) in 2000. Five years later Norfolkline acquired Norse Merchant Ferries, a roll-on/roll-off ferry operator on Irish Sea routes. In 2006 a new roll-on/roll-off terminal in Vlaardingen was opened, launching a new route between Vlaardingen and Felixstowe/North Killingholme Haven (UK
