What happened

CMA CGM and FedEx confirmed on October 1 that the $1.4 billion sale of FedEx Supply Chain has closed. FedEx Supply Chain is now part of CMA CGM's CEVA Logistics business.

CMA CGM said the completed acquisition adds nearly 10,000 team members and about 34 million square feet of warehouse space. The combined contract-logistics business operates about 150 warehouses, taking CEVA's North American presence to more than 240 locations and approximately 20,000 workers.

What is included

FedEx Supply Chain provides warehousing, order fulfillment and returns services. CMA CGM also confirmed multiyear ocean-freight commercial agreements with FedEx and said the companies plan to collaborate on selected air-cargo capacity.

The transaction is separate from the already completed FedEx Freight spinoff and does not mean all FedEx ground or freight operations are being sold.

What it means for drivers

The ownership transfer can change warehouse networks, customer flows and carrier relationships, but neither closing announcement promised specific driver hiring, route changes or facility closures.

Employees, contractors and carriers should use direct CEVA or FedEx communications for location-specific changes. The acquisition is complete, while integration decisions and any local operating effects remain separate future actions.
