Study Overview

Maritime transport encompasses all flows of goods and people moving by sea. This market study focuses on freight transport, which is the world's main way of commercial transport. Indeed, it accounts for 90% of commercial transport's volume and 80% of its value. Some key straits and channels - Malacca, Ormuz, Suez, etc. - concentrate extremely high levels of maritime traffic. Maritime transport has experienced strong growth in recent years. As a result, international trade has grown at twice the rate of global GDP. Asia has established itself as the key platform for seaborne trade, accounting for some 41% of cargoes and 62% of discharges. The world's largest container ports are Shanghai, Singapore, Ningbo-Shoushan, and Shenzen. Europe ranks second in terms of sea transport, accounting for 16% of loadings and 19% of unloadings. Italy has extremely extensive coastal borders and is the European Union's second-largest exporter of goods, behind Germany. Sea transport is well-developed on the peninsula. In the Mediterranean area, Italy is the most active country in terms of maritime transport, with 216 million tonnes of goods and a market share of 36%. Since 2016, Italy has also overtaken Germany and France regarding maritime trade with countries of the MENA region: the Middle East and North Africa.
