Rodolphe Saadé, Owner of CMA-CGM, will take control of Gefco with the help of Bercy

The turnover of this multinational logistics company has been declining sharply for a month. The market has become aware that its majority shareholder RZD, Russian Railways, is directly participating in the Russian war effort by transporting tanks and other equipment to the scene of the conflict.
