What are the limitations of ocean shipping?
Ocean shipping has longer transit times compared to air freight and land transport. Since ocean vessels are limited to moving cargo between ports, additional transport modes are needed to reach inland or remote destinations, which can extend overall transit time.
Ocean shipping is also susceptible to disruptions such as port congestion, adverse weather conditions, and geopolitical events.
