EFFOA separated freight from passenger operations in 1989, producing Finnlines Group while passenger interests went to Eftjohn. Freight activities, management, stevedoring, port interests and shares in Railship and Huolintakeskus were grouped together, and the company was listed on 2 July 1990. Bore Line was acquired from Rettig, which received 10% of Finnlines; Bore’s operations joined Finncarriers in 1992. The remaining Huolintakeskus shares were acquired in 1995 and exchanged for a stake in Bilspedition Transport Logistics, increased to 37% by 1997. That holding was exchanged through Stinnes for Poseidon, subsequently Finnlines Deutschland.
