Maritime Freight Transport Market Projected to Reach $492.24 Billion by 2030, Growing at 4.33% CAGR: Stellar Market Research Analysis

Estimated Revenue Growth:

Maritime Freight Transport Market size was valued at USD 365.85 Bn. in 2023 and the total Global Maritime Freight Transport Market revenue is expected to grow at a CAGR of 4.33% from 2024 to 2030, reaching nearly USD 492.24 Bn. by 2030.

Maritime Freight Transport Market Overview:

Maritime transport is crucial to international logistics, serving as the primary mode of transporting large volumes of cargo globally. It accounts for over 80% of global trade by volume, and this figure is even higher in many developing countries. The adoption of containerization has revolutionized storage methods, enabling more efficient handling and monitoring of goods, reducing storage costs, and contributing to the growth of marine transport over recent decades. In 2022, international sea freight, accounting for nearly 12 million metric tons, represented 49% of total global trade by value. The market is dominated by merchant vessels such as oil tankers, coal carriers, and container ships. The Asia-Pacific region leads the market, followed by Europe and North America.

Europe remains a significant player, with around 4.6 billion tonnes of goods loaded and 7 billion tonnes discharged annually. Despite a slight decline in the Liner Shipping Connectivity Index in 2022, the region witnessed a recovery in 2023. Major European ports like Rotterdam, Antwerp, and Hamburg are key hubs, and countries such as Spain, the Netherlands, and Belgium lead in maritime connectivity.
