The CMA CGM Group, a world leader in transport and logistics, has announced that the new CMA CGM Brazil is the largest vessel ever to enter the port of New York & New Jersey and to dock on the U.S. East Coast.
The 366 meter long - equivalent to eight Statues of Liberty - and 51 meter wide vessel has a 15,072 TEU capacity and is currently deployed on the weekly Columbus JAX service.
As the CMA CGM Brazil continues its East Coast journey, it will set individual vessel-size records at the following ports: Port of Virginia (September 15), Port of Savannah (September 19) and Port of Charleston (September 20).
