On February 20th 1930, the C.M.B.C. acquired the leader of the Belgian merchant navy, the Lloyd Royale Belge and changed its name to Compagnie Maritime Belge. The liaison with the Congo remains a priority but it developed other routes to the Americas and the Far East. Since 1970's, it specialised in the transportation of commodities, containers, oil and refrigerated LPG.
