The story

Inside ANL

ANL began in 1956 as the Australian National Line, a government-owned carrier serving the nation’s trade. It was privatised and, in 1998, acquired by CMA CGM.

Today ANL operates as CMA CGM’s Oceania-focused brand, connecting Australia and New Zealand with Asia, the Pacific and the wider world.
