Safmarine 

[Safmarine houseflag] by Jorge Candeias, 3 Feb 2002

The Safmarine flag is an orange Scandinavian cross, fimbriated in blue – since the company was largely Government-owned, it was expected to reflect the orange, white and blue so beloved of the former National Party government.
The company has largely been sold off, and I'm not sure how the ownership is currently structured.
