The shipping market requires reliable and cost-effective cargo delivery in the globalized business and e-commerce development age. Maritime logistics, moving cargo through maritime-based shipping networks as part of the global supply chain, is an important part of the process because of the scale and scope of its large operations in moving cargo to physically complete economic transactions in trade. The concept, the elements, the challenges, and the trends for maritime logistics are examined, considering its unique role in integrating with the global supply chain for cargo handling and movement to facilitate international trade activities. This chapter offers researchers a quick overview of maritime logistics in the supply chain context and discusses trends in the field.
