Ocean freight is the process of transporting goods by sea. It is the most common mode of transport for international trade, accounting for over 90% of all goods shipped globally. Ocean freight is a cost-effective and efficient way to transport large quantities of goods over long distances.
Ocean freight shipments can be transported on a variety of different types of ships, including container ships, bulk carriers, and tankers. Container ships are the most common type of ship used for ocean freight, and they are designed to carry standardized shipping containers. Bulk carriers are used to transport dry bulk commodities such as grain, coal, and iron ore. Tankers are used to transport liquid bulk commodities such as oil and gas.
