The largest containership ever to call at a North American port, the Benjamin Franklin, arrives at the Port of Los Angeles on Dec. 26. Among the largest in the French shipping line CMA CGM’s fleet, the vessel has a capacity of nearly 18,000 TEUs — about a third larger than the biggest containerships that currently call at the San Pedro Bay Port Complex.
