What Is Ocean Freight Shipping?
Ocean freight shipping is crucial to global trade, making up about 90% of international commerce. This method is efficient and affordable, so it’s the preferred way to transport many goods worldwide.
Freight is packed securely in containers, shipped on container ships, and transported across the ocean to ports worldwide.
Along with a reliable safety record, this shipping method is more environmentally friendly than air freight. It’s great for heavy or large (oversized) things that can’t be transported by air.
Ocean freight is an excellent option for both large and small businesses. It’s a flexible way to ship goods that don’t need to arrive quickly.
