FedEx Agrees to Sell Logistics Arm to CMA CGM for $1.4 Billion
FedEx agreed to sell its third-party logistics subsidiary to French container shipping company CMA CGM Group for an enterprise value of $1.4 billion. The transaction moves the supply chain arm to the Mediterranean Shipping Company-owned carrier, representing a significant expansion for the French group and a strategic refocus for FedEx's global network.
The sale pairs with a broader commercial cooperation between the two firms. Under a nonexclusive agreement, CMA CGM will provide ocean transport and carrier services while FedEx will contribute to select air-cargo capacity solutions.
