History of the CATM

The Compagnie Armoricaine de Transports Maritimes was founded in Saint-Malo (Brittany) after the Second World War. The Armoricaine epithet is derived from the Latin name of Brittany, Armorica. The company moved to Bordeaux and eventually to Marseilles in 1956, trading mostly with Algeria.

The company operated a small fleet of second-hand cargo vessels. On 10 April 1974, MS Marie-Annick sunk 80 miles south of Marseilles and four out of the nine crew members died.
The company was sold off in 1978.

House flag of the CATM

Paul Bois [boi03] shows the house flag of the CATM is divided per saltire red and blue, probably a reference to the traditional colours of Saint-Malo, with the white letters "C, "A", "T" and "M" in the respective quarters.
