Ceva expands its capabilities in Africa
Ceva Logistics has acquired a controlling stake in AMI Worldwide, a third-party logistics provider with an extensive network in East and Southern Africa.
Effective 1 July, the AMI Worldwide office network in 12 countries in East and Southern Africa and its almost 1,000 employees will join Ceva’s global network. Three CMA CGM inland services facilities will also be added to Ceva’s network in Mali, Burkina Faso and Ivory Coast.
These intermodal sites provide a launch platform for the company’s freight management ambitions. Ceva is also expanding in Mauritania, where a direct presence has been established with extensive expertise in transit corridor operations, and in Ethiopia, where a new joint venture with Macfaa will be integrated into Ceva’s network once all regulatory approvals are obtained.
