The Company, Loděnice Chvaletice, a.s., is a Shipyard on the right bank of river Elbe opposite to city Chvaletice between cities Pardubice and Kolín in the Czech Republic.

In 2021, the Shipyard was acquired by Czech family holding Franco including all the personnel. In 2022, the operating company T.I.S.C. merged together with the shipyard property holding company (under the same ownership) into newly formed Company Loděnice Chvaletice, a.s. (getting back to its original designation) to ease the organization and strengthen the credibility for its partners.
