In brief
Delmas Shipping was a containerized-freight and ro-ro shipping company based in Le Havre, France, mainly carrying trade between western Europe and Africa. Delmas was bought by CMA CGM from the Bolloré Group for €470 million in 2005, and fully integrated into its parent in March 2016.
The company operated a fleet of 49 vessels with a collective capacity of 63,000 twenty-foot equivalent units (TEU), on 15 routes between Europe, Africa and the Indian Ocean.
