Luc Hens honoured for strengthening
Finland–Belgium ties

Managing Director of Finnlines Belgium N.V., Luc Hens, officially received a Finnish decoration on 22 October 2025 at the Embassy of Finland to Belgium and Luxembourg.

The Embassy hosted a ceremony, where Luc Hens, Honorary Consul General of over 20 years, received a Finnish decoration, the Commander of the Order of the Lion of Finland, because of his contributions to strengthening the ties between Finland and Belgium.

“Representing Finland is a true privilege. I’ve experienced how much we can achieve when we build bridges – not just between countries and businesses, but between people, values, and cultures. I want to sincerely thank the President of the Republic of Finland for this honour, and all those who supported this nomination,” Luc Hens concluded at the event.
