Stena as an owner
Stena as an owner
Long-term and responsible owner
By taking a long-term approach, with focus on care in everything we do, Stena’s business units deliver services for society both onshore and offshore. By balancing independent business units with a shared Group framework, we create a successful dynamic.
In the White Book, Stena’s CEO and principal owner, Dan Sten Olsson, has formulated the principles, convictions and fundamental values that apply to all the Group’s companies. It sets out success factors and describes the focus areas arising from the Group’s values. Each business unit is based on a clear business idea. Stena applies the principle of delegated business acumen and accountability. Independent decisions must be made close to the business. Over and above what is set out in the White Book, all companies are required to adhere to a number of Group-wide policies and rules.
Vision
Our vision to “Always be the customer’s first choice and quality- assured partner” requires us to safeguard the company’s and the world’s resources. We all contribute to this vision by participating in value-creating activities – often together with our customers.
Mission
By maintaining good contact with our customers and the world around us we nurture our growing trust. By doing this we create more and better business – and more satisfied customers.
Business concept
By using our expertise, we will make money from our business areas: shipping, ferry routes, offshore drilling, property and finance. We will also continue to create new business areas for the future. We will take care of our most important long-term assets, our customers, in such a way that we contribute to their – and society’s – positive development. Never wasting our own or the world’s resources is a Stena trademark.
Sustainable success built on constant improvement
This section highlights three different long-term sustainability perspectives. The first looks at how Stena Property has been creating sustainable value in Malmö for many years. The second at how Stena RoRo addresses its customers’ biggest challenges. The third at how Stena Line invests in order to maintain and consolidate its position in the market.
Anniversary in Malmö
Stena Property celebrated two anniversaries in Malmö in 2024. In September, Bellevuegården celebrated its 50th anniversary as a residential area, including the last 20 years with Stena as the owner and landlord. In Lindängen, Stena celebrated its 30th anniversary as owner and landlord in August. Both residential areas were built in the 70s.
Unique partnership behind flexible solution
After several years at the drawing board, Stena RoRo ordered its first four E-Flexer vessels in 2016. Since then, an additional eleven have been ordered, fifteen in total, for six different ferry companies.
Stronger position in the North Sea
In 2024, Stena Line, together with Associated British Ports (ABP), decided to invest over GBP 200 million in a new ferry terminal at the Port of Immingham in the Humber Estuary on the north-east coast of England. At the same time, Stena Line and ABP signed a 50-year lease agreement for the new facility.
