Founded in 1851, the company was known first as Messageries Nationale and then Messageries Imperiales, and finally Messageries Maritimes in 1871. Originally serving middle eastern destinations, such as Malta, Egypt, Lebanon, and Constantinople, it carried troops in the Crimean War, receiving as a reward the contract for the Bordeaux-Brazil line.
