CMA CGM Group last week announced that it has been recognised “Company of the Year” by Lloyd’s List during the ceremony held on 20 September in London.

CMA CGM received the award based on its ability and willingness to innovate and adapt to the rapidly changing nature of the shipping markets over the past 12 months.

According to Richard Meade, editor of Lloyd’s List, “CMA CGM impressed the panel with its capability to overcome the odds and an impressive display of resilience. CMA CGM confounded expectations by swinging back into the black with such vigor that it has outpaced rivals in terms of operating margins during the first half of this year. It was one of only four container lines that could claim to in the black during the period. Amid challenging market conditions, poor economic prospects and rampant overcapacity, this company has become well known for its ability to innovative and challenge expectations”

CMA CGM is honored by this award, which highlight the dedication and expertise of its 17,200 staff members worldwide. A mobilization that enables the Group to react quickly to meet every one of its customers’ needs and provide the best service possible in every aspect of our activity. The Group appreciates the massive support from our customers, who keep entrusting CMA CGM and chose not only a shipping supplier but a partner.

The internationally acclaimed Lloyd’s List Awards have been running since 1998 and give the industry the opportunity to recognise and reward excellence and achievement within its ranks and in an ever changing maritime industry.
