I thought APL was a Singapore company, unless they have split up some more. They have undergone some restructuring in the last few years. They used to do trucking, but I don’t know if that has changed.
APL was originally American President Line, and all of their ships were named for American presidents. When APL went financially sour, the company was bought by Neptune Orient Line of Singapore.
It seems odd that CMA-CGM continues to use the APL prefix, particularly when what follows is the name of a port in China.
