The world’s largest container ship, sailing under the French flag, the CMA CGM Jules Verne, which can carry 16,000 containers, arrives in the port of Marseille, yesterday. To celebrate the 35th anniversary of the CMA CGM Group, the ship was deviated from its usual route rotation and made an exceptional call  in Marseille, where she will be inaugurated today in the presence of French President Francois Hollande.
