Container Prefix Tracking
SOFU Container Tracking – CMA CGM
Track SOFU containers associated with CMA CGM. Check the ISO number format, owner identity, carrier milestones, and missing-update guidance.
- Prefix
- SOFU
- Owner or operator
- CMA CGM
The four-letter prefix SOFU appears at the start of ISO container identification numbers and is associated with CMA CGM.
A complete container number combines the owner prefix, six-digit serial number, and check digit. The prefix identifies registered equipment ownership and does not always identify the carrier currently transporting the container.
Use the complete number to request available tracking events. If no events appear, confirm the operating carrier because leased or exchanged equipment can move under another shipping line.
SOFU container number format
A container number starting with SOFU has the four-letter prefix, a six-digit serial number, and one check digit, for example SOFU1234567.

Enter the full SOFU number to request events. SOFU is a known prefix for Sofrana Unilines, but leased or exchanged equipment can travel with another shipping line, so check the operating carrier if nothing appears.
