Top Growth Drivers in the Maritime Industry: What's Accelerating the Market?
The anticipated surge in trade volume is predicted to stimulate expansion in the maritime market. The rise in trade-characterized by the transaction of goods or services between entities, typically a buyer and a seller, to fulfill mutual requirements or economic gains-is a result of globalization, which has boosted international interconnectivity and fostered the exchange of goods and services across borders to satisfy the escalating consumer and industrial needs. This increase in trade volume bolsters maritime by intensifying the need for oceanic transport, known to be the most economical and efficient means to transfer massive quantities of goods over extended distances. For example, in June 2023, the UN Trade and Development, an intergovernmental organization based in Switzerland, reported that maritime trade was expected to climb by 2.4% in 2023 and sustain a growth rate over 2% annually from 2024 to 2028. Hence, the growing trade volume is set to propel the expansion of the maritime market.
