Ateliers et Chantiers de Saint-Nazaire Penhoët

France

Ateliers et Chantiers de Penhoët was a major French shipbuilding company based at Saint-Nazaire. The shipyard existed in several successive forms between 1861 and 1955, beginning with an early yard founded by Scottish engineer John Scott and later developing into one of France’s principal builders of merchant ships and naval vessels. In 1955 the company merged with the Ateliers et Chantiers de la Loire to form Chantiers de l’Atlantique, its modern successor.
