The privately owned company, Spar Shipping AS traces its roots back to 1962 when Mr. Helge Eide Knudsen founded his successful textile business “Spar Kjøp AS» which today has a number of retail outlets in addition to an extensive mail order operation catering to the Norwegian market.
Profits generated from the initial business were subsequently diversified into real estate investments, stock holding and shipping. In continuation of this strategy Spar Shipping AS was established as a separate entity in 1990; holding passive shares in a number of limited partnerships dealing with shipping investments.
