CMA CGM has announced the resumption of its reefer shipments in Nigerian ports with immediate effect.

Particularly, the French ocean carrier said in its statement that it "can now accept reefer bookings to all Nigeria ports."

CMA CGM has published the following "status" of reefer acceptance to Nigerian ports:

  • Tincan: all reefers bookings accepted
