The Marine Shipping industry is truly global – across borders, cultures, languages and continents every single day and hour of the year. The movement of goods – including everything from electronics to fuels, foodstuffs to people could not happen without the global shipping industry.
Shipping is the life blood of the global economy. Without shipping, intercontinental trade, the bulk transport of raw materials, and the import/export of affordable food and manufactured goods would simply not be possible.
