Rodolphe Saadé, le PDG du troisième armateur mondial, a déclaré être « très enthousiaste » au sujet de cet investissement, qui pourrait s’accroître « dans les prochaines semaines ».
French shipping giant CMA CGM will invest $20 billion in the United States over the next four years. The investment will create approximately 10,000 jobs and focus on infrastructure, logistics terminals, increasing the US-flagged fleet, expanding capacity at major ports, developing advanced warehouses, and establishing an air cargo hub in Chicago. The move aims to strengthen CMA CGM's partnership with the US, support the American economy and exports, enhance supply chain efficiency, and increase digitalization and security. The investment also includes a new logistics R&D center in Boston.
