The facility is spread over a 35,000 sqm site and has an operating capacity of more than 4,000 TEU.

In a statement, the group said the new facility demonstrates the company's commitment "to go the extra mile for Indonesian shippers".

The Cakung depot is the latest addition to three other CMA CGM depots in Marunda (Jakarta), Cikarang, and Surabaya. With the Marunda facility operating at full capacity, the opening of the new Cakung depot is timely in catering to Indonesia's growing exports.

Given the Cakung depot's close proximity to the neighbouring industrial warehouses, travel time and distance between the facilities are significantly reduced. Importantly, shippers now have two depot options by the Group in Jakarta that they can rely on for their logistics and shipping needs.

John Lim, General Manager of CMA CGM Indonesia, said: "Our new depot in Cakung is designed to improve our inland logistics service and optimise our shipments in BETTER WAYS.

"Increasingly, we are handling more customised cargoes such as garment on hanger containers and Flexitank containers for liquids that will require special handling by our in-house experts. Our depots are therefore important in enabling CMA CGM to fulfill the high standards we promise our Indonesian exporters and shippers."
