What Is Ocean Freight Shipping?
Ocean freight shipping moves cargo across international waters using container vessels and specialized cargo ships. It accounts for approximately 90% of global trade, making it the most widely used shipping method worldwide.
This transportation method is known for its cost efficiency, reliability, and environmental advantages compared to air freight. Ocean shipping is ideal for heavy cargo, oversized shipments, and goods that do not require expedited delivery timelines.
Baum Shipping helps businesses leverage ocean freight as a flexible and scalable shipping solution for both large and small international operations.
