    Global shipping major CMA CGM has strengthened its presence in India by reflagging its fifth vessel under the Indian flag. The latest addition, CMA CGM VILA DO CONDE, marks another step in the company’s strategy to deepen its footprint in one of the world’s fastest-growing trade markets.

    The newly reflagged vessel is expected to enhance the Group’s capacity on key trade routes while reinforcing its operational integration within India’s maritime sector. This move aligns with CMA CGM’s broader commitment to supporting the country’s expanding trade ecosystem through dependable and efficient logistics solutions.

    The company indicated that this is part of an ongoing expansion plan, with a sixth vessel scheduled to be reflagged by the end of May. By steadily increasing its India-flagged fleet, CMA CGM aims to play a more significant role in facilitating both coastal and international trade.

    From maritime shipping to inland logistics, the Group continues to position itself as a key partner in advancing India’s trade ambitions.
