In March 2025, Hanseatic Global Terminals acquired a 60% majority stake in the CNMP LHterminal Le Havre, with the remaining 40% held by Seafrigo. Since then, Hanseatic Global Terminals has invested significantly in the site, including the purchase of 14 Kalmar hybrid straddle carriers with delivery expected in early 2026. Additionally, Benoit Klein was appointed Managing Director of Hanseatic Global Terminals Le Havre. The new name andbrand identity represent the latest step in the terminal’s growth journey.
Hanseatic Global Terminals (HGT) today successfully completed the acquisition of 60% of the shares in CNMP LH from Seafrigo Group. CNMP LH operates the Atlantique container terminal in Le Havre, France, as an independent company for its customers worldwide. The remaining 40% of the shares in CNMP LH will continue to be held by Seafrigo Group, a company specialized in temperature-controlled food logistics. The contracting parties have agreed to not disclose any financial details of the transaction.
Hanseatic Global Terminals has appointed Benoit Klein as Managing Director of CNMP Le Havre, effective 1 September 2025.
Bringing 29 years of industry experience, Klein’s leadership follows Hanseatic’s recent 60% acquisition of the terminal and marks a key step in strengthening growth and operational excellence.
