It connects global value chains, carrying raw materials and semi-processed goods to production hubs and delivering finished products to consumers. These flows are vital for industrialization, economic growth and job creation.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Seaborne trade has evolved over the decades, shaped by containerization, the rise of developing economies and shifting production and consumption patterns. Today, digitalization, geopolitics and the push for sustainability and climate resilience are redefining the sector.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\">A clearer picture of who ships what \u2013 and how much<\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Reliable, up-to-date country-level data is key to understanding trade flows and guiding better transport and trade policies and investment decisions.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Built from official trade data reported by governments to\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/comtradeplus.un.org\/\"><strong>UN Comtrade<\/strong><\/a>,\u00a0<strong>the new dataset offers a more accurate and comparable view of global maritime cargo movements<\/strong>, helping countries to:<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li>Monitor trade performance and competitiveness.<\/li>\n<li>Assess integration into global supply chains and trade networks.<\/li>\n<li>Inform port and transport infrastructure investment decisions.<\/li>\n<li>Track progress on Sustainable Development Goal 9.1.2 to develop quality, reliable, sustainable and resilient infrastructure \u2013 for which maritime freight and port cargo volumes are indicators.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Data highlights developing countries\u2019 rising share of maritime trade<\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Historically, developing countries served mainly as loading hubs<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 major exporters of raw materials but marginal importers of manufactured goods. But this has evolved since the 1970s, driven by structural changes such as the oil crises, trade liberalization, increased private sector participation in port operations, the rise of container shipping and reforms to liner shipping alliances.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>The shift accelerated in the early 2000s as developing countries increased trade among themselves<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 including in raw materials, oil and manufactured goods.\u00a0<strong>Their share of global maritime freight rose from 38% in 2000 to 54% in 2023<\/strong>.
