Captain PK Mishra, business head, APM Terminals Pipavav said, “We are grateful to our partners GRFL and CMA CGM for their trust in us. The scheduled import train to NCR reiterates our commitment to our customers for facilitating their needs for faster and safer delivery of cargo."

Earlier this month, CMA CGM, alongwith CEVA Logistics launched a new cross-border service for ocean freight containers used by customers across Thailand and Laos. The service will help the companies' import and export customers and help them reduce their carbon footprint as empty containers no longer have to be returned to their origin.

In May 2019, CMA CGM launched the Mov'India 2019 initiative with an aim to bring together the key stakeholders and influencers of the shipping and logistics industry for discussions into the future of the industry.
