About CMA CGM UAE

CMA CGM is a French shipping and logistics group headquartered in Marseille. It is one of the world's largest container shipping companies and operates in the UAE through local offices and services at the country's major ports.

The company was founded by Jacques Saadé, who was born in Beirut, and it has grown into a global group with a large fleet, port terminals and logistics businesses.

Beyond container shipping, CMA CGM has expanded into logistics through its acquisition of CEVA Logistics, offering freight forwarding, warehousing and contract logistics, and into air cargo.

In the UAE, CMA CGM serves importers and exporters with container services connecting the Gulf to Asia, Europe, Africa and the Americas.

The group has invested in vessels powered by liquefied natural gas and other alternative fuels, as shipping companies work to lower emissions.

Container shipping costs and schedules can be affected by global disruptions, and shippers often work with several carriers to manage risk.

CMA CGM is a French company rather than a UAE startup, and Startups UAE lists its UAE operations among the country's shipping and logistics providers.
