CMA CGM unveils new Port Liberty brand at Manhattan party

CMA CGM has rebranded the two terminals it acquired from Global Container Terminals last year in New York and New Jersey.

At a launch party last night in Manhattan with the mayor of New York in attendance the French liner unveiled the newly branded Port Liberty, the name for what used to be called GCT Bayonne and New York. The logo features the Statue of Liberty, a New York landmark donated by the French in 1886.

The Port of New York and New Jersey is CMA CGM’s largest gateway on the US East and Gulf Coasts.

The Bayonne and New York terminals, with an existing combined capacity of 2m teu per year, have a potential for further expansion, up to almost double capacity, according to CMA CGM.
