In context

How SNCM compares

Counts over companies and vessels actually held in this directory — not over the world fleet, which is larger. Nothing here is estimated.

With 1 vessels attributed to it here, SNCM is the 492nd largest of the 965 operators in this directory that hold at least one ship on record, against a median of 2 across that group. That is a count of individually identified hulls, not the company’s published fleet size — the two are different measurements and both are shown above where available.

France is the country of registration for 53 commercial operators in this directory, among which SNCM ranks 17th by ships on record. Between them those companies hold 128 vessels here. 1 of them carry a published container-capacity ranking. See every operator registered in France.

Founded in 1969, SNCM is 57 years old. This directory holds 115 operators founded within five years either side of that date, whose median fleet on record is 1 ships. The median founding year across all commercial operators here is 1966, and the oldest on record dates to 1514.
