September 13, 1978 – September 13, 2020, the CMA CGM Group celebrates its 42nd anniversary.

Marking 42 years of unprecedented entrepreneurship, outstanding expertise and human adventure with CMA CGM Group’s 110,000-strong staff.

Leveraging its strong values that are boldness, initiative, imagination, and integrity, the CMA CGM Group is determinedly looking to the future, and more than ever ready to open up new ways to innovate and meet its customers’ needs.

The CMA CGM Group’s ambition is to continuously transform the shipping and logistics industry.

Taking tangible and immediate action for the environment 

In order to meet those challenges, the CMA CGM Group intends to fully contribute to sustainable globalization.

Together, we are all responsible for building a better world for future generations.

With the upcoming addition of the CMA CGM JACQUES SAADE to its fleet, the first 23,000 TEU containership to be powered by liquefied natural gas, the Group reaffirms its commitment to the future whilst also demonstrating its loyalty to its longstanding family values of boldness, initiative, integrity, and imagination.
