Clan Line was established in 1878 when Charles Cayzer acquired two steamers to operate a service to Bombay. The firm later extended its operations to other parts of India and South Africa. CIan Brodie was built at Greenock in 1940, and was originally the seaplane depot ship HMS Athene. She was bought by Clan Line in 1946 and converted into a conventional cargo vessel of 7,473 gross tons.
