The Unione Austriaca Company was founded in 1903 by Fratelli Cosulich of Trieste, when this city was ruled by the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Passenger services from Trieste for Messina, Naples, Palermo and New York started in 1904. In 1907services to New Orleans and South America commenced, but the New Orleans route was discontinued the following year. Agreement was reached with Canadian Pacific in 1913 to provide alternate sailings from Trieste to Canada, but this was not foundto be economical and after six voyages in 1913, the service was not resumed. The company's services ceased on the outbreak of the First World War in 1914 and after the Armistice, and the change of rule of Trieste from Austria to Italy, thecompany was re-established as the Cosulich Line. Passenger services operated from Mediterranean ports to New York and SA.
A new company named ITALIA [Italia Flotte Riuniti Cosulich-Lloyd Sabaudo-NGI] was formed in 1932 by the amalgamation of Italian passenger companies and Cosulich was co-ordinated with this concern, but retained it's own management. In 1937 ITALIAwas liquidated and replaced by Italia Societa Anonima di Navigazione which absorbed the Cosulich Line.
