French shipping and logistics company, CMA CGM, has entered a strategic partnership with Google to accelerate the development of AI solutions throughout its global operations.
The company said it aims to shorten its delivery times and boost efficiency by optimising shipping routes and container handling using AI.
In addition, the company’s logistics arm, CEVA Logistics, will use Google’s AI management tools to help boost efficiency throughout its warehouses.
