Though J. Nüsse claims, that the company was located in Botafogo; R.J. (Brazil), the company was located in Hamburg. It was established and dissolved by Arnold Keller, the current director of region Europe of Alianca Navegacao & Logistica Ltda in Hamburg. The company tried to optimize the coffee shipping between Scandinavia and Brazil. It was a joint venture of Alianca, Lloyd Brasileiro and some minor companies, forming a common fleet added by two new built ships, the M/V LAPLANDIA and the M/V GOTLANDIA, built in Rostock at Neptun-Werft. Trans Roll joined the company later.
Therefore the flag was changed afterwards.

Description of flag #1: The flag was divided per saltire into white(hoist and fly) and red(top and bottom). At the top edge was a horizontal black stripe, at the bottom edge a yellow one. The main field was superimposed by two yellow rings, superimposing one another (like the symbol for wedding). In the left one was a black “LB” (for Lloyd Brasileiro) and in the right one a black “AL”(for Alianca). Source: Arnold Keller; director region Europe of Alianca

In 1984 Empresa de Navegacao Allianca SA and Lloyd Brasileiro Patrimonio Nacional, both located in Rio de Janeiro founded SCAN BRAS Joint Service, located according to BÜHNE in Botafogo. Two vessels ran a circle line Rio d.J.- Santos – Pagua to Oslo, and from there to Aarhus –Göteborg – Malmö – Stockholm – Helsinki, there and back again.
In 1988 Transroll Navegacao SA, located in Rio d.J. joined SCAN BRAS.
As Transroll refused the funnel with the initials “LB” and “AL”, a new flag and funnel were created, replacing the initials by a black inscription “SCAN” and “BRAS”, each placed on a white background upon two black arrows.
Another flag was created, with a yellow inscription “SCAN” and a red inscription “BRAS”, but according to source this flag had never been used officially.
The three companions gained 33.3% of the profit each. Allianca was the main actor and all decisions had been made in Hamburg despite of company location in Botafogo. Transroll and Lloyd Brasileiro played the role of “quiet participants”.
In 1991 the company was dissolved. Allianca bought bigger container ships and the business was maintained via Hamburg since then.

Description of flag#2: The flag was divided per saltire into white(hoist and fly) and red(top and bottom). At the top edge was a horizontal black stripe, at the bottom edge a yellow one. The main field was superimposed by two yellow rings, superimposing one another but thicker than in flag#1.
In the left one was a black inscription on white background “SCAN”, superimposing some kind of black arrowhead, pointing upwards. In the right one with “BRAS” instead and the arrowhead pointing downwards.
