In a landmark deal for Lebanon’s private sector, global shipping giant CMA CGM is set to acquire 100% of Fattal Group, one of the country’s oldest and most prominent family-owned businesses. The acquisition marks a significant vote of confidence in Lebanon’s economic resilience.
Fattal Group, founded over 130 years ago, began as a small family enterprise and has grown into a regional powerhouse. Today, it operates across eight countries as a leading distribution platform, spanning a wide range of sectors.
The financial terms of the deal have not been disclosed, but the acquisition is expected to bolster CMA CGM’s footprint in the Middle East and leverage Fattal’s extensive distribution network. For Lebanon, the move signals continued foreign investor interest despite the country’s ongoing economic difficulties.
Industry analysts view the acquisition as a strategic play by CMA CGM to strengthen its logistics and supply chain capabilities in the region. The deal is likely to face regulatory scrutiny but is expected to close pending approvals.
