**Compagnie maritime d'affrètement - Compagnie générale maritime**, commonly known as **CMA CGM** is a French [ocean transportation](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ocean_transportation "Ocean transportation") and [logistics](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logistics "Logistics") company. Headquartered in [Marseille](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marseille "Marseille"), France,[\[7\]](#cite_note-7) company operations include maritime transportation, [port operation](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Port_operator "Port operator"), [supply chain management](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supply_chain_management "Supply chain management"), and [warehousing](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distribution_center "Distribution center").

The company has a presence in 160 countries with 400 offices, 750 warehouses, 155,000 employees, and a fleet of 593 vessels. CMA CGM serves 420 of the world's 521 [commercial ports](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Port "Port") and operates 257 [shipping lines](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shipping_line "Shipping line").[\[8\]](#cite_note-The_Group-8) CMA CGM is the [third-largest container shipping company](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_largest_container_shipping_companies "List of largest container shipping companies") in the world.[\[9\]](#cite_note-9) For the 2024 fiscal year, the company reported an annual revenue of US$55.48 [billion](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Billion "Billion").[\[2\]](#cite_note-report2024-2)

The company was founded in 1978 by [Jacques Saadé](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacques_Saad%C3%A9 "Jacques Saadé"),[\[10\]](#cite_note-10) and the name is an [acronym](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acronym "Acronym") derived from its two predecessor companies, Compagnie Maritime d'Affrètement (CMA) and Compagnie Générale Maritime (CGM), which translate to "Maritime Freighting Company" and "General Maritime Company", respectively.

The history of CMA CGM can be traced back to the middle of the 19th century, when two major French shipping lines were created, respectively [Messageries Maritimes](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Messageries_Maritimes "Messageries Maritimes") (MM) in 1851 and Compagnie Générale Maritime (CGM) in 1855, soon renamed [Compagnie Générale Transatlantique](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compagnie_G%C3%A9n%C3%A9rale_Transatlantique "Compagnie Générale Transatlantique") in 1861. Both companies were created partly with the backing of the French State, through the award of mail contracts to various destinations, French colonies and overseas territories as well as foreign countries. After the two World Wars, the two companies became "State owned corporations of the competitive sector" (_Entreprise publique du secteur concurrentiel_), i.e., companies that, while owned by the State, were run as private for-profit businesses operating in competitive markets. The French government, under President [Valéry Giscard d'Estaing](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Val%C3%A9ry_Giscard_d'Estaing "Valéry Giscard d'Estaing") and Prime Minister [Jacques Chirac](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacques_Chirac "Jacques Chirac"), progressively merged the two companies between 1974 and 1977 to form Compagnie Générale Maritime, which was still owned by the French government and still run as a competitive business, although sometimes subject to political pressure, for instance on the selection of shipyards to build new ships.

Compagnie Générale Maritime (CGM) operated as such from 1974 to 1996 when it was privatized by the French state under President Chirac and Prime Minister [Alain Juppé](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alain_Jupp%C3%A9 "Alain Juppé"). During these 22 years it operated freight and container liner services in various global trade lanes, as well as a fleet of dry bulk ships, and a few large oil tankers and Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) tankers, with headquarters located in Paris' western suburbs, first in Paris-[La Defense](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/La_Defense "La Defense"), then in close by [Suresnes](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suresnes "Suresnes").

The CGM liner services, mostly containerized but also operating a significant fleet of "Con-Ro" vessels able to load [roll-on/roll-off](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roll-on/roll-off "Roll-on/roll-off") cargoes, were re-structured from the two parent companies' main trade lanes, i.e. Western trade lanes (Americas) for [Compagnie Générale Transatlantique](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compagnie_G%C3%A9n%C3%A9rale_Transatlantique "Compagnie Générale Transatlantique") (CGT) and Eastern trade lanes (Asia, East Africa, Pacific, plus Eastern South America) for [Messageries Maritimes](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Messageries_Maritimes "Messageries Maritimes") (MM). After the merger and re-structure, CGM's liner services were managed in four distinct Trade Divisions, North America & Far East (AMNEO, for Amérique du Nord & Extrême Orient) which also managed the bulk and tanker fleets, South America & Caribbean (AMLAT), Pacific & Indian Ocean (PACOI) and Short Sea Trades (Cabotage).

Separately, [Jacques Saadé](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacques_Saad%C3%A9 "Jacques Saadé") had created CMA in 1978 as an intra-Mediterranean liner service operator, based in [Marseille](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marseille "Marseille"). In 1996, CGM was privatized and sold to Compagnie Maritime d'Affrètement (CMA) to form CMA CGM.[\[11\]](#cite_note-11)

In 1998 the combined company purchased [Australian National Line](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Australian_National_Line "Australian National Line").[\[12\]](#cite_note-12)

In September 2005, CMA CGM acquired its French rival [Delmas](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delmas_\(company\) "Delmas (company)") based in [Le Havre](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Le_Havre "Le Havre") from the [Bolloré Group](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bollor%C3%A9 "Bolloré") for €600 million. The acquisition was completed in early January 5, 2006. The resulting corporation became the third largest container company in the world behind the Danish [Maersk](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maersk "Maersk") and the Swiss [Mediterranean Shipping Company](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mediterranean_Shipping_Company "Mediterranean Shipping Company")[\[13\]](#cite_note-13)

In July 2016 CMA CGM finalized its acquisition of Singapore-based [NOL](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neptune_Orient_Lines "Neptune Orient Lines") (Neptune Orient Lines) and its container line [APL](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_President_Lines "American President Lines") (American President Lines) after an all-cash offer of US$2.4 billion. The takeover is CMA CGM's largest acquisition and the purchase added 12 percent market share to the CMA CGM group. The Singapore Exchange Securities Trading suspended trading of NOL shares at the end of the offer.[\[19\]](#cite_note-19)[\[20\]](#cite_note-20)

CEVA operational center is transferred in [Marseille](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marseille "Marseille"), France, where is located the Head Office of the CMA CGM Group.[\[25\]](#cite_note-25) In September 2019, the world's first LNG-powered container ship is launched.[\[26\]](#cite_note-26)

In March 2020, Rodolphe Saadé announced that CMA CGM was offering 200,000 FFP2 protective masks to France Health Agency to fight against the COVID-19 virus.[\[27\]](#cite_note-27) In February 2021, CMA CGM Group completes its logistics offer by creating a new division dedicated to air freight: [CMA CGM Air Cargo](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CMA_CGM_Air_Cargo "CMA CGM Air Cargo"). With its four [Airbus A330-200F](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AIRBUS_A330-200F "AIRBUS A330-200F") cargo aircraft, this airfreight division links Europe to North America.[\[28\]](#cite_note-28) The first flight from [Liège](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Li%C3%A8ge "Liège") to Chicago marks the debut of commercial operations.[\[29\]](#cite_note-29)

In September 2021, CMA CGM announced a partnership with fellow Breton-based operator [Brittany Ferries](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brittany_Ferries "Brittany Ferries"). The partnership involves a €25 million investment, plus a CMA CGM representative joining Brittany Ferries' supervisory board.[\[30\]](#cite_note-30)[\[31\]](#cite_note-31)[\[32\]](#cite_note-32)

In May 2022, CMA CGM signed a strategic partnership with [Air France-KLM](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_France-KLM "Air France-KLM") to develop their air cargo capacities together. However, this partnership, implemented in April 2023,[\[33\]](#cite_note-33) was terminated by mutual agreement in January 2024 without change in the 9% stake acquired by CMA CGM in the Franco-Dutch airline group.[\[34\]](#cite_note-34)[\[35\]](#cite_note-35)

## Accidents and incidents

\[[edit](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=CMA_CGM&action=edit&section=15 "Edit section: Accidents and incidents")\]

On April 4, 2008, pirates seized the CMA CGM luxury cruise ship _[Le Ponant](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Le_Ponant "Le Ponant")_ off the coast of Somalia.[\[67\]](#cite_note-67)

CMA CGM and its affiliates have been implicated in various arms-shipping incidents.

-   November 2009: South Africa seized arms traveling from North Korea by way of China. The seizure amounted to two containers filled with tank parts and other military equipment from North Korea, which included "gun sights, tracks and other spare parts for [T-54 and T-55 tanks](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T-54/55 "T-54/55") and other war material valued at an estimated $750,000." The military equipment was concealed in containers lined with sacks of rice and shipping documents identified the cargo as spare parts for a "bulldozer". According to the report, the containers were originally loaded in [Dalian](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dalian "Dalian"), China onto CMA CGM _Musca_, a UK-flagged container ship. The shipment was reportedly destined for [Pointe-Noire](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pointe-Noire "Pointe-Noire") in the [Republic of Congo](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Republic_of_Congo "Republic of Congo").[\[68\]](#cite_note-68)[\[69\]](#cite_note-69)
-   July 2009: The United Arab Emirates seized a shipment of weapons from North Korea destined for Iran. The shipment was made in violation of [UN Security Council Resolution 1874](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UN_Security_Council_Resolution_1874 "UN Security Council Resolution 1874"), which bans all North Korean Arms exports. The weapons, which included RPGs, detonators, ammunition, and rocket propellant, were shipped by a Bahamian-flagged vessel of ANL Australia, a wholly owned subsidiary of CMA CGM.[\[70\]](#cite_note-70)[\[71\]](#cite_note-71)
-   October 2010: Nigerian authorities seized 13 shipping containers carrying illegal Iranian weaponry at Lagos' [Apapa Port](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apapa "Apapa"). The containers included 107 mm artillery rockets ([Katyushas](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Katyushas "Katyushas")), explosives and rifle ammunition. The arms were to be shipped next to [The Gambia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Gambia "The Gambia"), with the final destination of the cargo possibly the [Gaza Strip](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaza_Strip "Gaza Strip"). MV CMA CGM _Everest_ originally picked up the containers from the Iranian port of [Bandar Abbas](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bandar_Abbas "Bandar Abbas"). CMA CGM said it was the victim of a false cargo declaration, claiming the weapons were shipped in packages labeled as "glass wool and pallets of stone" and that the Iranian shipper "does not appear on any forbidden persons listing".[\[72\]](#cite_note-72)
-   March 2011: Israeli forces intercepted the vessel _Victoria_ in international waters in the Mediterranean Sea, stating that it was carrying weapons by Iran via Syria. According to Israeli officials, the arms shipments included "roughly 2,500 mortar shells, nearly 75,000 bullets and six [C-704](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C-704 "C-704") anti-ship missiles". Israel said the ultimate destination of the cargo was for the Hamas-controlled Gaza Strip.[\[73\]](#cite_note-73) CMA CGM, which chartered the vessel, stated, "The ship's manifests do not show any cargo in contravention \[of\] international regulations, and we do not have any more information at this stage."[\[74\]](#cite_note-74)

As a result of CMA CGM's involvement in Iranian weapons smuggling, US congressmen have called on CMA CGM to be investigated and urged the US Treasury Department to consider levying sanctions against the shipper.[\[75\]](#cite_note-75) The company has since implemented tighter procedures for accepting shipments bound for Iran,[\[76\]](#cite_note-76) including scanning all containers destined for the country.[\[77\]](#cite_note-Reuters_I-77) CMA CGM has also ceased exporting from Iranian ports since November 2011.[\[77\]](#cite_note-Reuters_I-77)

On 4 May 2017, the [container ship](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Container_ship "Container ship") _CMA CGM Centaurus_ made heavy contact with the quay and two shore cranes while under pilotage during its arrival at [Jebel Ali](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Port_of_Jebel_Ali "Port of Jebel Ali"), [United Arab Emirates](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Arab_Emirates "United Arab Emirates"). The accident resulted in the collapse of a shore crane and 10 injuries to shore personnel.[\[78\]](#cite_note-78)

On 20 January 2018, the container ship _CMA CGM Washington_ was on-route to [Los Angeles](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Los_Angeles "Los Angeles"), [US](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States "United States"), from [Xiamen](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xiamen "Xiamen"), [China](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/China "China"), when it experienced heavy waves in the North [Pacific Ocean](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pacific_Ocean "Pacific Ocean"). The crew discovered that three bays, 54, 58 and 18, collapsed, which led to the loss of 137 containers and damage of another 85.

On 24 December 2018, the container ship _CMA CGM Norma_ was involved in a collision with the China-flagged general [cargo ship](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cargo_ship "Cargo ship") _Yusheng366_ in the waters south of [Hong Kong](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hong_Kong "Hong Kong"). All the crew from _Yusheng366_ were rescued as they abandoned ship before she sank, while _CMA CGM Norma_ suffered minor damages.[\[79\]](#cite_note-79)

On 6 April 2022, a fire broke out in a container on the ship's deck on the 6,552 TEU _CMA CGM Rabelais_. The vessel was en route to [Nhava Sheva](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nhava_Sheva "Nhava Sheva"), [India](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/India "India"), after departing Singapore and was navigating the [Malacca Straits](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malacca_Straits "Malacca Straits"), some 100 km north-west of [Port Klang](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Port_Klang "Port Klang"), when the fire was discovered at about noon, local time.[\[80\]](#cite_note-80) A spokesperson for vessel owner Danaos Corporation, said the master had “immediately implemented firefighting protocols” and emphasised that "the fire is still burning, but it is under control.” One crew member was injured during the firefighting operations, when he slipped and fell, breaking some ribs.[\[81\]](#cite_note-81)

On 3 July 2022, the Singaporean-flagged container ship APL Vanda was on-route between [Singapore](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Singapore "Singapore") and [Suez](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suez "Suez") as part of CMA CGM's Asia - North-Europe Fal 3 service, when it lost 55 loaded containers in the [Indian Ocean](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indian_Ocean "Indian Ocean") whilst the vessel was facing heavy weather, just before entry to the [Gulf of Aden](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gulf_of_Aden "Gulf of Aden") according to CMA CGM.[\[82\]](#cite_note-82) No injury was reported and all crew members were safe. The ship, which left Singapore on June 26, stopped on July 9 in [Djibouti](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Djibouti "Djibouti") "to clear some damaged containers on deck before safely continuing its voyage."[\[83\]](#cite_note-83)

On 25 November 2023, US defense officials reported that the ship was targeted in a suspected Iranian drone attack while in the Indian Ocean, en route from [Jebel Ali](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jebel_Ali "Jebel Ali"), United Arab Emirates to [Port Klang](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Port_Klang "Port Klang"), Malaysia.[\[84\]](#cite_note-TradeWinds-84) The ship has an Israeli owner and the incident happened a short time before the [2023 Gaza war ceasefire](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2023_Gaza_war_ceasefire "2023 Gaza war ceasefire").[\[85\]](#cite_note-85)[\[86\]](#cite_note-86)
