CMA CGM and OM launch partnership with the release of the new jersey for the 2023–2024 season

The CMA CGM Group, a global player in sea, land, air, and logistics solutions, is proud to have its name displayed on the front of Olympique de Marseille’s new official jersey for the 2023–2024 season.  

The unveiling of this new jersey designed by Puma, Olympique de Marseille’s official kit supplier since 2018, marks the beginning of the main partnership between the club and the Group. It will be worn by the players of the men’s team during the first match of the season on the weekend of August 12th and 13th, as well as by the women’s team and the OM Campus, the club’s training center.  

A partnership symbolizing passion and pride in the Marseille region 

The Group and all its staff members are proud to see their logo featured on the jersey of the city’s iconic club, where CMA CGM was founded almost 45 years ago. This symbol represents the obvious alliance between a French industrial flagship, with its global headquarters located in Marseille and employing over 4,000 people, and a French football club with international ambitions.  

As the first and only French club to win the UEFA Champions League, Olympique de Marseille finished third in the 2022–2023 Ligue 1 standings and has ambitious plans for the upcoming season. CMA CGM is delighted to be teaming up with Olympique de Marseille to support a new chapter in its history and to contribute to the reputation of Marseille.

Two major players in Marseille join forces to promote sports for all 

Beyond sports competition, Olympique de Marseille and CMA CGM aim for their partnership to help make the necessary sports equipment more accessible on the Marseille territory.  

By teaming up with the “Capitale du Foot” project, the OM Foundation and the CMA CGM Foundation are set to give a new lease of life to underused spaces by turning them into sports facilities for everyone to use. The “City-stade de la Major” complex will be renovated to accommodate sporting and cultural activities run by the OM Foundation and local community organizations.

A major step in the Group’s sports partnership strategy  

CMA CGM shares a common culture of commitment, team spirit and the pursuit of excellence and success.  

CMA CGM has sealed three major partnerships, in addition to the one with OM:  

• Official Partner in Logistics solutions of the Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games  
• Technical Partner of the Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Torch Relay
• Team Partner of the Scuderia Ferrari’s racing division and official logistics partner since 2022.  

Tanya Saadé Zeenny, Executive Officer of the CMA CGM Group :

“Pushing yourself to the limits, team spirit and a thirst for excellence are sport values cherished by CMA CGM. That’s why the Group has decided to join forces with three top names in the French and global sporting world – the Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games, Scuderia Ferrari, the most successful team in Formula 1 history, and now Olympique de Marseille, our home city’s iconic club. As this new partnership begins, CMA CGM is particularly proud to see its name displayed on OM’s jerseys, and our employees are eager to join the people of Marseille in a united and thrilling experience”.
