CMA CGM launches early container return incentive

CMA CGM has launched an early container return incentive programme designed to increase climate change mitigation in the US while assisting in the overall effort to improve both the fluidity and velocity of the supply chain.

The programme which runs from the start of October to the end of December 2022 is meant to reward customers for increasing equipment availability, while providing them with carbon credits to offset emissions.

Credits will be provided to customers who return both dry and refrigerated containers originating from nearly 20 Asian countries to CMA CGM-approved return locations in port cities throughout the US.
