Market Potential

The fast-growing Chinese economy and rapidly developing foreign trade has resulted in a speedy increase in the Chinese marine transportation volume, and also created a momentum in the global sea transportation industry. In the past 3 years, China accounted for more than 90% of the world bulk cargo sea transportation volume's increment. China's demand for new shipping in 2006-2010 is forecast to be 31 million DWT, or approximately 6.2 million DWT on average per year.

On the other hand, China's cargo and container throughput has already been the top of the world for 3 consecutive years. In 2005, Shanghai Port's throughput reached 443 million tons, propelling it to the position of the world's largest port. Container throughput reached 18 million TEUs, which topped the world's third place for three consecutive years.

All these positive elements provide a favourable environment for both the domestic and international maritime industry to excel, and Marintec China will provide the perfect platform for your company to explore these tremendous business opportunities.
