Sea Freight

Maritime transport which is relocating goods by means of sea carriers, has been the backbone supporting the international trade (being responsible for movement of over 80 per cent of the world merchandise trade).

In the intricate tapestry of global trade, sea freight stands out as its backbone. In an era where efficiency and cost-effectiveness are paramount, sea freight offers unmatched benefits, making it a preferred mode of transport for businesses worldwide. At Milky Way Logistics, we understand the critical role sea freight plays in the global supply chain, and our services are tailored to leverage its advantages to the fullest.

 

The most important advantage of maritime transport has been saving in transport cost over the distance when the transit time is not the main concern.

 

Sea freight is celebrated for its cost-effectiveness, especially for large shipments. The ability to move massive volumes of goods across oceans at competitive rates is one of its standout features. This is particularly beneficial for businesses that need to transport bulky or heavy items, as cost per unit with sea freight is often significantly lower compared to air freight.

 

Another advantage is the lesser environmental impact. Ships, especially the new generation of eco-friendly vessels, have a much lower carbon footprint per ton of cargo compared to airplanes or trucks. This aligns well with the increasing global focus on sustainability and the growing demand for greener logistics solutions.
