The term Maritime Industry describes the responsibility for the transportation of goods, products, and people by sea.
Ocean freight is surprisingly cheap.
Shipping accounts for 90% of world trade.
At any given time, there are about 20 million containers on their journey across the seas.
Worldwide, only 2% to 10% of containers are inspected.
Shipping industry is a greener form of transport compared to planes and trucks.
The average annual salary of a maritime worker ranges from USD 45,000 to USD 65,000.
UNCTAD predicted for the period 2023-2027 maritime trade growth would expand at an annual average of 2.1%.
