Global Overview of Sea Freight

Sea freight is the backbone of global trade, accounting for over 80% of the world's cargo volume and nearly 70% of global trade value. It is the most cost-efficient mode of transportation for long-distance and large-scale shipments.

This method is widely used for:

Major global trading hubs for sea freight include:
