3. Versatility: Ocean freight forwarders can handle a variety of cargo, including bulk, containerized, and specialty products, such as refrigerated.

 

4. Environmental Sustainability: Ships emit less CO2 per ton of goods transported than other means of transport, contributing to greener logistics.

 

5. International Access: Ocean shipping offers opportunities to reach global markets, facilitating international trade and export.

 

6. Traceability: Many shippers offer advanced tracking systems, allowing complete visibility along the supply chain.

 

Disadvantages of Sea Shipping

1. Long Delivery Times: Compared to air shipments, maritime transit times can be significantly longer, affecting the speed of operations.

 

2. Damage and Loss of Goods: The handling of heavy goods and maritime transport can involve increased risks of damage or loss, requiring adequate insurance coverage.

 

3. Weather Conditions: Bad weather can cause delays in deliveries and affect cargo safety.

​

4. Additional Costs: Despite the convenience, there may be hidden costs, such as port and handling fees that can increase the total cost.

 

5. Geographic Limitations: Not all destinations are easily accessible by sea, making it necessary to use other means of transport for the "last mile".
