2016 Shipping Jobs In India.

The shipping industry is battening down the hatches for a global economic storm that could last years. The slowdown in China, Europe’s anaemic recovery and the failure of other emerging markets to live up to growth expectations is having a devastating effect on the global maritime industry, which carries 65pc of the world’s trade. One of the hardest-hit parts of the industry is container shipping, the movement of the ubiquitous steel boxes measured in 20ft equivalent units (TEUs) that transformed the industry in the 1950s by speeding up and simplifying international trade.
