MacGregor has been selected to supply cargo access solutions for nine new RoPax vessels as part of the Grimaldi Group’s major fleet renewal plan. This significant order includes cargo access equipment for three vessels for Finnlines, four for Grimaldi Euromed, and two for Minoan Lines. The vessels will be built at China Merchants Industry Weihai Shipyard .
The order was booked to MacGregor’s third quarter 2025 orders received.
This order is the result of a collaborative approach with all project stakeholders, ensuring the delivery of solutions that perfectly meet the specific requirements of the vessels and the customer. The order includes two different vessel designs:
● Three ships for Finnlines, with a capacity of 5,400 lane meters and 1,000 passengers, destined for the Baltic Sea.
● Six ships (four for Grimaldi Euromed and two for Minoan Lines), with a capacity of 3,300 lane meters and 2,500 passengers, for the Mediterranean and Adriatic Sea networks.
“This is a fantastic achievement that reinforces our commitment to our customers,” says Magnus Sjöberg, Executive Vice President, Merchant Solutions Division, MacGregor. “By collaborating closely with the owner and our key partners, we were able to demonstrate our ability to deliver the right solutions to meet their specific needs. This order is a clear testament to the collective expertise of our global team.”
