Shipping is the backbone of international trade, carrying almost 90% of the world trade across the globe. Without shipping, the import and export of goods on the scale necessary for the modern world would not be possible. There are around 50,000 merchant ships trading internationally, transporting every kind of cargo. The world fleet is manned by over a million seafarers of virtually every nationality. This makes shipping a truly globalized industry.
